dasha sapta can also mean sapta dasha (70) or dasha saptams, 10 times 7
(70)
[like trissapta of puruSHasUktam, which means 3 times 7=21]
Thus, it would be 70, perhaps kausalya's age.
rAma, I have waited for seventy years with the hope that my grief will
be redeemed
after your birth.
This is like telling I have waited for 90 years to see my son get nobel
prize.
