Pūtanā-mokṣa — The Witch Pūtanā’s Attempt and Kṛṣṇa’s Deliverance
पृश्निगर्भस्तु ते बुद्धिमात्मानं भगवान् पर: । क्रीडन्तं पातु गोविन्द: शयानं पातु माधव: ॥ २५ ॥ व्रजन्तमव्याद्वैकुण्ठ आसीनं त्वां श्रिय: पति: । भुञ्जानं यज्ञभुक् पातु सर्वग्रहभयङ्कर: ॥ २६ ॥
pṛśnigarbhas tu te buddhim ātmānaṁ bhagavān paraḥ krīḍantaṁ pātu govindaḥ śayānaṁ pātu mādhavaḥ
ليحمِ پِرشنيگربها ذكاءك (buddhi)، وليحمِ البهگوان الأعلى آتمانك. حين تلعب فليحمِك گوڤيندا، وحين تنام فليحمِك مادهاڤا. حين تمشي فليحمِك ڤايكونثا، وحين تجلس فليحمِك شريپتي زوجُ لاكشمي؛ وحين تتناول وتتمتع فليحمِك يَجْنَبهُك، المُرعِب لكل الكواكب النحسة (graha).
