10.CLXII Agni

bráhmaṇāgníḥ saṃvidānó rakṣohā́ bādhatām itáḥ |
ámīvā yás te gárbhaṃ durṇā́mā yónim āśáye ||

1 MAY Agni, yielding to our prayer, the Rakṣas-slayer, drive away The malady of evil name that hath beset thy labouring womb.

yás te gárbham ámīvā durṇā́mā yónim āśáye |
agníṣ ṭám bráhmaṇā sahá níṣ kravyā́dam anīnaśat ||

2 Agni, concurring in the prayer, drive off the eater of the flesh, The malady of evil name that hath attacked thy babe and womb.

yás te hánti patáyantaṃ niṣatsnúṃ yáḥ sarīsr̥pám |
jātáṃ yás te jíghāṃsati tám itó nāśayāmasi ||

3 That which destroys the sinking germ, the settled, moving embryo, That which will kill the babe at birth, —even this will we drive far away.

yás ta ūrū́ vihárati antarā́ dámpatī śáye |
yóniṃ yó antár āréḷhi tám itó nāśayāmasi ||

4 That which divides thy legs that it may lie between the married pair, That penetrates and licks thy side, —even this will we exterminate.

yás tvā bhrā́tā pátir bhūtvā́ jāró bhūtvā́ nipádyate |
prajā́ṃ yás te jíghāṃsati tám itó nāśayāmasi ||

5 What rests by thee in borrowed form of brother, lover, or of lord, And would destroy thy Progeny, —even this will we exterminate.

yás tvā svápnena támasā mohayitvā́ nipádyate |
prajā́ṃ yás te jíghāṃsati tám itó nāśayāmasi ||

6 That which through sleep or darkness hath deceived thee and lies down by thee, And will destroy thy progeny, —even this will we exterminate.
