Translation
After saying this, the sun-god made her pregnant and returned to the celestial kingdom. Immediately from Kuntī a child was born, who was like a second sun-god.
The sun-god discharges seed; immediately a child is born like a second sun. The Lord's arrangements are sometimes shockingly fast — what looked like a curious test becomes a life-altering reality in moments.
