Translation
May the furrow be irrigated with sweet water by the grace of all the bounties of Nature and the winds. О vigour-bestowing furrow, being filled with water, may you provide us with plenty of milk. (1)
Note
Sita, furrow, a straight line made with a ploughshare. This furrow was personified and worshipped as a goddess presiding over agriculture or the fruits of the earth. In Ramayana, Sitä was found as a new-bom baby lying іп a fresh furrow. In the Hindu legend Sita is the most honoured female entity. Madhuna ghrtena, मधुरेण उदेकेन, with sweet water; not with saline water (Uvata). But more peotic interpretation will be : with delicious purified butter. May the furrows be filled with sweetened ghee, Payasā, with water; with milk, with milk and ghee etc.
