Devanagari script

दिनेदिने भवेत्तस्य वाजिमेधाधिकं फलम् । माघे मासि तृतीयायां या नारी तं प्रपूजयेत् । तदन्वयेऽपि दौर्भाग्यं दुःखं शोकश्च नो भवेत्

Transliteration

dinedine bhavettasya vājimedhādhikaṃ phalam | māghe māsi tṛtīyāyāṃ yā nārī taṃ prapūjayet | tadanvaye'pi daurbhāgyaṃ duḥkhaṃ śokaśca no bhavet

Translation

Tag für Tag wird für einen solchen Verehrer die Frucht größer als die des Aśvamedha-Opfers. Und im Monat Māgha, am dritten Tithi, wird bei der Frau, die Ihn verehrt, selbst in ihrer Linie kein Unglück, kein Leid und keine Trauer entstehen.
