pra mātuḥ prataraṃ ghuhyamichan kumāro na vīrudhaḥsarpadurvīḥ | sasaṃ na pakvamavidacchucantaṃririhvāṃsaṃ ripa upasthe antaḥ
English Translation (Griffith)
Seeking, as ’twere, his Mother's secret bosom, he, like a child, creeps on through wide-spread bushes. One he finds glowing like hot food made ready, and kissing deep within the earth's recmes.
