pura pita no bhagavan
dakso duhitr-vatsalah
kam vrnita varam vatsa
ity aprcchata nah prthak
Translation by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada:
In days long ago, our father, the most opulent Daksa, who was affectionate to his daughters, asked each of us separately whom we would prefer to select as our husband.
Purport by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada:
It appears from this verse that free selection of a husband was allowed by the father, but not by free association. The daughters were asked separately to submit their selection of a husband who was famous for his acts and personality. The ultimate selection depended on the choice of the father.
