"Lord, Father, Baikuṇṭa,
where was it grown, where was it created?" begins to say.
"This by Mahādev, Baikuṇṭa."
"By whose hand, at whose stand did it grow?" begins to say.
"Rām, Lakṣmaṇ, two brothers' hand, at their stand it grew.
Sītā, Pārvatā, two sisters' hand, at their stand it grew," begins to say.
"These seeds of Baikuṇṭa, are in Kummirā's house,
Lord, Father!" Mahādev himself:
"Baikuṇṭa's seeds, are in Kummirā's house,
go there, go, O Blacky Stewardess,
O Miser-slanderer Pun," begins to say.
"You cannot request them directly."
Coppery Dove, Coppery Dove,
Coppery Dove said, "Lord, Father, Mahādev, I will go!"
"Go then, Coppery Dove, go to Kummirā's house,
in the storeroom, scatter the hearth's flame.
In the threshing courtyard, elder imā dhuro, elder pimā dhuro,
you, black barley seeds, white barley seeds,
elder seeds of seven seeds of truth,
swallow them whole, bring back to the upper world,
give them to Mahādev's hand, to his stand," begins to say.
Coppery Dove, went to the lower world.
In the threshing courtyard of Kummirā's house,
she saw imā dhur, pimā dhur,
saw black barley seeds, white barley seeds,
went into Kummirā's house, entered the storeroom,
scattered the hearth's flame.
"Lord! Kummirā, in your house,
the hearth's flame has been scattered," begins to say.
Kummirā got up, went to request fire.
Coppery Dove, imā dhur, pimā dhur,
seeds of black barley, white barley, seeds of seven seeds of truth,
she swallowed them whole, rushed back to the upper world,
hopping from branch to branch.
Lacking sense, lacking insight,
Miser-slanderer Pun, Miser-slanderer Pun, not identifying her as Blacky,
with a golden slingshot, a silver pellet, struck and killed her.
As her life departed, as her life departed:
"Lord! Mahādev Baikuṇṭa's command causes me to lose my life."
Blacky Stewardess herself as well,
Mahādev Baikuṇṭa commanded her,
Mahādev himself he sought, he brought.
"Damn this! This Coppery Dove, went to get Baikuṇṭa's seeds,
you can't just strike and kill her," saying, took her in hand. [break]
Took her in hand, splitting her open, imā dhur, pimā dhur,
seeds of black barley, white barley, seven seeds of truth were there.
He took them in hand, took them in hand.
In Mathurī Field, he planted barley,
in Sesame Field, he planted sesame.
Who broke up the clods?  
Sītā, Pārvatā, two sisters, leveled the field.
"By whose hand did they sprout, at whose stand did they sprout?" saying,
by Rām, Lakṣmaṇ, two brothers' hand they sprouted,
at Sītā, Pārvatā, two sisters' stand they sprouted.
In the month of Bhadau, to the Magars, Mahādev himself:
"Take a double-bladed axe, cut down Dark Thicket," saying,
in the month of Bhadau, they take it in hand,
the Magars in the month of Bhadau cut it down.
In the month of Asoj, they burned it off.
"In the month of Kārtik, plow it," began to say.
"Who will plow, who will dig?" began to say.
Mahādev himself went to the seed storage, grabbed Hanumān Warrior.
"Will you plow?" he asked. "I cannot plow," he said.
Rām, Lakṣmaṇ, two brothers, he made the plowmen.
Sītā, Pārvatā, two sisters, he made the plowwomen.
He made them. Lord, Father, Mahādev: "What kind of oxen,
what kind of plow, what kind of yoke,
what kind of yoking rope? What kind of side yoke bars shall we make?
what kind of rear wedge shall we make?" began to say.
"Make them," began to say.
He began to make a fish-poisonwood plowbeam, a frostwood plow,
weepers, creepers, those consumed by the Veda,
of twelve dead souls, taking out their bones,
made side yoke bars, a rear wedge,
taking out their fingers, taking out their palms,
made a handle, put in a frog's stomach,
turning the plow east, one furrow,
turning the plow west, one furrow,
turning the plow north, one furrow,
turning the plow south, one furrow,
turning the plow in four directions, made four furrows.
Mahādev himself made a protective oath:
"By the true mother, may this be something to eat,
imā dhur, pimā dhur, you, Baikuṇṭa, together, all together."
Opening the earth, human eyes appeared,
in one month, it was nourished,
in two months, it flourished,
in three months, it branched,
in four months, formed kernels,
in five months, the kernels split,
in six months, they thickened,
in seven months, this, imā dhur, pimā dhur,
grew brown eyes, red tassels,
grew them, and at seven as well, the mustard was of golden hue,
of golden hue, the flowers flowered,
of Mahādev's coppery hue, it ripened.
"So, with what shall we cut it?" asking;
"During a solar eclipse, during a lunar eclipse,"
to Sharp-eyed Blacksmith: "Of Dhūrkoṭ iron,
make a sickle," began to say.
Sharp-eyed Blacksmith himself, entering Dark Thicket,
burned charcoal of leafy chestnut,
a golden bucket of Dark Copse rhododendron,
putting an edge to it, tempered it to the peacock wing temper,
made a sickle, gave it to Sītā, Pārvatā, two sisters' hand, stand;
Sītā, Pārvatā, two sisters harvested it.
Harvested it and bringing dung from Bounteous Cow,
smearing the threshing floor, they spread it out,
[corrects an error in the previous line:] They spread plenty. Mahādev himself they sought, they brought.
"Lord! Mahādev, how shall we thresh, how shall we winnow?" saying,
Mahādev himself, grabbing hold of a tiger, a tigress,
made them the oxen.
Of Deep Forest, cane, reed,
bringing a four-cornered winnowing tray,
brought it and gave it to Sītā Pārvatā's hands.
Smearing four corners, sacrificing a red cock,
spread the spurt of blood at the four crossroads.
Tiger, tigress, with a cherrywood threshing post,
yoking tiger, tigress, they threshed.
"Of the east, be plentiful, of the west, be plentiful,
of the north, be plentiful, of the south, be plentiful."
Be plentiful! Hooves thrashing, tails lashing,
horns flashing, they began to thresh, to winnow.
In a four-cornered winnowing tray, they totaled nine bushels.
Mahādev himself they sought, they brought.
"Here, Mahādev, there are a total of nine bushels," saying,
Mahādev himself came, took all nine bushels in hand. [break for tea]
Mahādev took all nine bushels in hand,
taking them in hand, to his stand, he ascended to the sky house,
applied barbs of the nine suns, put them in deep earth house,
ascended the earth's flame,
Mahādev himself, taking a step, set the method.
Lord! Mahādev taking one step, established the cherrywood staff,
taking a second step, established the cane [corrected from 'iron'] wand,
taking a third step, established the iron mace.
"Where, how far, did the cherrywood staff reach?"
Strikers, binders, skilled ones, clever ones, astrologers, shamans,
astrologers, shamans, wood roots dwellers, water forces,
restless inciters, trouble inviters,
playing on this side, the ridge home's valley ghost.
"Restrain, constrain them!" begins to say,
taking a second step, established the cane wand,
established the cane wand,
brought pale cane of Exhausted Pond,
brought a cane wand, this, mouth applying spell,
small witches, great witches, fearful quick witches, dead witches,
backward and forward witch familiars,
acts of forward cleverness, backward cleverness,
backward cleverness is made straight.
Established in three steps, wand of iron,
brought the wand of iron. "This, wand of iron,
where, how far does it reach?" began to say.
Of this house, of this very home,
ancestral wraiths, family gods,
Blood-drinking Maṣṭa, Grain-eating Maṣṭa,
seven spike, seven spanners embed,
a line of ashes spread.
One level of oaths, two levels of oaths, three levels of oaths,
guru's divine might, my devoted insight,
oath of Honorable Mahādev!
