1.23.1
नक्तंजातासि ओषधे रामे कृष्णे असिक्नि च ।
इदं रजनि रजय किलासं पलितं च यत् ॥ १.२३.१ ॥
Born at night, O herb, you are in Rāmā and Kṛṣṇā and Asiknī. O Rajani, colour this leprosy and greyness, whatever it is.
1.23.2
किलासं च पलितं च निरितो नाशया पृषत् ।
आ त्वा स्वो विशतां वर्णः परा शुक्लानि पातय ॥ १.२३.२ ॥
Destroy the leprosy and greyness from here, and the spot as well. Let your own colour enter you; cause the white marks to fall away.
1.23.3
असितं ते प्रलयनमास्थानमसितं तव ।
असिक्नी अस्योषधे निरितो नाशया पृषत् ॥ १.२३.३ ॥
Your base is black, and your seat is black. O herb, you are Asiknī; destroy the spot from here.
1.23.4
अस्थिजस्य किलासस्य तनूजस्य च यत्त्वचि ।
दूष्या कृतस्य ब्रह्मणा लक्ष्म श्वेतमनीनशम् ॥ १.२३.४ ॥
I have destroyed the white mark of the leprosy born of bone and of that born of the body which lies in the skin, made by taint through the sacred charm.
