स्मरः। रथजितां राथजितेयीनामप्सरसामयं स्मरः । देवाः प्र हिणुत स्मरमसौ मामनु शोचतु
smaráḥ | rathajitā́m rāthajiteyī́nām apsarásām ayáṃ smaráḥ | devā́ḥ prá hiṇuta smarám asáu mām ánu śocatu
Smara. This is the Smara of the Apsarases, of the Rathajitās, of the Rathajiteyīs. O Gods, drive forth Smara: let yonder one pine after me and burn with longing.
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (often treated as anonymous/atharvanic for such kāmya hymns)
Devata: Smara (Kāma) empowered through Apsarases; Gods as dispatchers
Chandas: Mixed/Anuṣṭubh-like cadence (edition-dependent; many AV love-spells are treated as anuṣṭubh)
