南無佛陀耶　南無達摩耶
南無僧伽耶　我禮佛世尊
照世大法王　在於閻浮提
最初說神呪　甘露淨勝法
及禮無著僧　已禮牟尼足
即時說偈言　世尊諸如來
聲聞及辟支　諸仙護世王
大力龍天神　如是等諸眾
皆於人中生　有夜叉羅剎
常喜㗖人胎　非人王境界
強力所不制　能令人無子
傷害於胞胎　男女交會時
使其意迷亂　懷妊不成就
或歌羅安浮　無子以傷胎
及生時奪命　皆是諸惡鬼
為其作嬈害　我今說彼名
願佛聽我說

Namo buddhāya, namo dharmāya,
Namo saṅghāya! I pay homage to the Buddha, the World-Honoured One,
The Great Dharma King who illuminates the world.
In Jambudvīpa
He first preached the divine dhāraṇī,
The pure and supreme Dharma of ambrosia.
I also pay homage to the non-attached Saṅgha,
And having paid homage to the Muni's feet,
I instantly speak these verses:
World-Honoured One, the Tathāgatas,
Śrāvakas and pratyekabuddhas,
All ṛṣis and world-protecting kings,
Mighty dragons and heavenly spirits—
All such multitudes
Are born among humans.
There are yakṣas and rākṣasas
Who constantly delight in devouring human embryos.
Beyond the realm of human kings,
They cannot be subdued by strong force.
They can cause people to be childless
By injuring and harming the womb.
When men and women unite,
They cause their minds to be deranged
So that pregnancy does not succeed,
Or in the stages of kalala or arbuda,
Leaving them childless by injuring the fetus,
And taking its life at the time of birth.
All of these are evil demons
Creating disturbance and harm.
I shall now proclaim their names;
May the Buddha listen to what I speak.
