नास्ति मातृसमा छाया नास्ति मातृसमा गतिः ।

नास्ति मातृसमं त्राणं नास्ति मातृसमा प्रपा ।|

माता के समान कोई छाया नहीं है, माता के समान कोई गति या आश्रय नहीं है, माता के समान कोई सुरक्षा नहीं है, माता के समान कोई जीवनदायिनी नहीं है।

There is no shade like that of a mother, no resort like a mother, no security like a mother and no eternal force which gives life like a mother.

स्कन्दपुराण |  Skanda Purnana
