ā́ vr̥ṣāyasva śvasihi várdhasva pratháyasva ca |
yathāṅgáṃ vardhatāṃ śépas téna yoṣítam íj jahi ||1||
Play thou the bull, blow, increase and spread; let thy member increase limb by limb; with it smite the woman.

ténāsyá brahmaṇas pate dhánur ivā́ tānayā pásaḥ ||2||
Wherewith they invigorate one who is lean, wherewith they incite (hi) one who is ill—with that, O Brahmaṇaspati, make thou his member taut like a bow.

ā́háṃ tanomi te páso ádhi jyā́m iva dhánvani |
krámasva ŕ̥ṣa iva rohítam ánavaglāyatā sádā ||3||
I make thy member taut, like a bowstring on a bow; mount, as it were a stag a doe, unrelaxingly always.
