पिप्पली क्षिप्तभेषज्य् उतातिविद्धभेषजी । तां देवाः सम् अकल्पयन्न् इयं जीवितवा अलम् ॥१॥
pippalī kṣiptabheṣajy utātividdhabheṣajī | tāṃ devāḥ sam akalpayann iyaṃ jīvitavā alam ||1||
The berry (pippalī́), remedy for what is bruised (? kṣiptá), and remedy for what is pierced—that did the gods prepare (sam-kalpay-) that is sufficient for life.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
पिप्पल्यः सम् अवदन्तायतीर् जननाद् अधि । यं जीवम् अश्नवामहै न स रिष्याति पूरुषः ॥२॥
pippalyaḥ sam avadantāyatīr jananād adhi | yaṃ jīvam aśnavāmahai na sa riṣyāti pūruṣaḥ ||2||
The berries talked together, coming from their birth: whomever we shall reach living, that man shall not be harmed.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
असुरास् त्वा न्य् अखनन् देवास् त्वोद् अवपन् पुनः । वातीकृतस्य भेषजीम् अथो क्षिप्तस्य भेषजीम् ॥३॥
asurās tvā ny akhanan devās tvod avapan punaḥ | vātīkṛtasya bheṣajīm atho kṣiptasya bheṣajīm ||3||
The Asuras dug thee in; the gods cast thee up again, a remedy for the vātī́kṛta, likewise a remedy for what is bruised.
