Translations signed

What by his morning songs Kanva, the powerful, hath, with the Priyamedhas, gained- The herds of sixty thousand pure and spotless kine, have I, the Rsi, driven away.

Ralph T.H. GriffithThe Hymns of the Rigveda, translated with a popular commentary, 1896 · public domain

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.
