अभिजित् सर्वकार्येषु मुहूर्तोऽयं सुखप्रदः । मध्याह्ने यः प्रसूतो हि सः स्याद्धर्मपरायणः ॥
abhijit sarvakāryeṣu muhūrto'yaṃ sukhapradaḥ | madhyāhne yaḥ prasūto hi saḥ syād dharmaparāyaṇaḥ ||
Abhijit is an auspicious muhurta that grants success in all endeavors; one born at midday is devoted to righteousness.
अष्टमो दिवसे मुहूर्तः स अभिजित् प्रकीर्तितः । तस्मिन्कृतं तु कर्माणि सिध्यत्यभिजिद्यथा ॥
aṣṭamo divase muhūrtaḥ sa abhijit prakīrtitaḥ | tasminkṛtaṃ tu karmāṇi sidhyaty abhijid yathā ||
The eighth muhurta of the day is proclaimed as Abhijit; works undertaken within it succeed just as (did) Abhijit, the victorious one.
मध्याह्ने दिवाकरस्तिष्ठन् दशमे भाति भास्वरः । तन्मध्ये जातजन्तूनां तेजसा ते प्रकाशते ॥
madhyāhne divākaras tiṣṭhan daśame bhāti bhāsvaraḥ | tanmadhye jātajantūnāṃ tejasā te prakāśate ||
Standing resplendent at midday in the tenth house, the Sun illuminates those beings born at that time with his radiance.
