1
May Agni, who answers our prayer, the rakṣasa slayer, drive away the illness of a bad name that has plagued your laboring womb.
2
Agni, joining with the prayer, drive off the flesh-eater, the illness of a bad name that has attacked your baby and womb.
3
That which destroys the sinking seed, the settled, moving embryo, that which will kill the baby at birth—let us drive it far away.
4
That which divides your legs so they can lie between the couple, and penetrates and licks your side—let us eradicate it.
5
Whatever rests by you in borrowed form of brother, lover, or lord, and wants to destroy your offspring—let us eradicate it.
6
That which, through sleep or darkness, has deceived you and lies by you, and will destroy your offspring—let us eradicate it.
