marī́cīr dhūmā́n prá víśā́nu pāpmann udārā́n gácchótá vā nīhārā́n | nadī́nāṃ phénāṃ ánu tā́n ví naśya bhrūṇá-ghni pū́ṣan duritā́ni mṛkṣva ||
Into the rays, into the smokes pass forth, O Evil; go to the openings, or else to the mists. Along the foams of rivers—following them—vanish away: O Pūṣan, slayer of the embryo, wipe thou off the evils.
光線の中へ、煙の中へと去れ、悪(pāpmán)よ。裂け目へ行け、あるいは靄へ行け。川々の泡に沿い——それに従って——消え失せよ。プーシャン(Pūṣan)よ、胎を殺す者よ、禍(durita)を拭い去れ。
