RV 10 183.1

apaśyaṁ tvā manasā cekitānaṁ tapaso jātaṁ tapaso vibhūtam | iha prajām iha rayiṁ rarāṇaḥ pra jāyasva prajayā putrakāma
I have seen you, showing yourself again and again to the mind, born of heat, grown mighty from heat. Here bestowing offspring, here wealth — be born forth with offspring, you who desire a son.
