न्यस्तिका रुरोहिथ सुभगंकरणी मम । शतं तव प्रतानास् त्रयस्त्रिंशन् नितानाः ॥ तया सहस्रपर्ण्या हृदयं शोषयामि ते ॥१॥
nyastikā rurohitha subhagaṃkaraṇī mama | śataṃ tava pratānās trayastriṃśan nitānāḥ || tayā sahasraparṇyā hṛdayaṃ śoṣayāmi te ||1||
Nyastikā́ hast thou grown up, my good-fortune maker; a hundred [are] thy forth-stretchers, three and thirty thy down-stretchers. With this thousand-leafed [herb] I make dry thy heart.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
शुष्यतु मयि ते हृदयम् अथो शुष्यत्व् आस्यम् । अथो नि शुष्य मां कामेनाथो शुष्कास्या चर ॥२॥
śuṣyatu mayi te hṛdayam atho śuṣyatv āsyam | atho ni śuṣya māṃ kāmenātho śuṣkāsyā cara ||2||
Let thy heart dry up on me, then let [thy] mouth dry up; then dry thou up by loving me; then go thou about dry-mouthed.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
संवननी समुष्पला बभ्रु कल्याणि सं नुद । अमूं च मां च सं नुद समानं हृदयं कृधि ॥३॥
saṃvananī samuṣpalā babhru kalyāṇi saṃ nuda | amūṃ ca māṃ ca saṃ nuda samānaṃ hṛdayaṃ kṛdhi ||3||
A conciliator, a love-awakener (?), do thou, O brown, beauteous one, push together; push together both yon woman and me; make [our] heart the same.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
यथोदकम् अपपुषो ऽपशुष्यत्य् आस्यम् । एवा नि शुष्य मां कामेनाथो शुष्कास्या चर ॥४॥
yathodakam apapuṣo 'paśuṣyaty āsyam | evā ni śuṣya māṃ kāmenātho śuṣkāsyā cara ||4||
As the mouth of one who has not drunk water dries away, so dry thou up by loving me, then go thou about dry-mouthed.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
यथा नकुलो विछिद्य संदधात्य् अहिं पुनः । एवा कामस्य विछिन्नं सं धेहि वीर्यावति ॥५॥
yathā nakulo vichidya saṃdadhāty ahiṃ punaḥ | evā kāmasya vichinnaṃ saṃ dhehi vīryāvati ||5||
As a mongoos, having cut apart, puts together again a snake, so, O powerful [herb], put together the divided of love.
