Translations signed

Unwelcome for adoption is the stranger, one to be thought of as another's offspring, Though grown familiar by continual presence. May our strong hero come, freshly triumphant.

Listen

No recitation by a named reciter exists for this verse yet. Around eleven śākhās are still recited by an unbroken chain of teachers, and recording them is the most time-critical work in this project. If you recite, please get in touch.
