तामसं सुमहाघोरं चकारास्त्रं सुदारुणम्। निर्ददाह कपीन्सवस्तेि प्रपेतुः समन्ततः॥ उत्पपात रजो भूमौ तैर्भग्नैः संप्रधावितैः। नहि तत्सहितुं शेकुर्ब्रह्मणा निर्मितं स्वयम्॥
tāmasaṃ sumahāghoraṃ cakārāstraṃ sudāruṇam| nirdadāha kapīnsavastei prapetuḥ samantataḥ|| utpapāta rajo bhūmau tairbhagnaiḥ saṃpradhāvitaiḥ| nahi tatsahituṃ śekurbrahmaṇā nirmitaṃ svayam||
