कस्तूरीतिलकं बाले भाले मा कुरु मा कुरु।
अद्य साम्यं भजामीति जृम्भते शशलाञ्छनः॥

“O maiden, do not place the musk mark on your forehead today—see, even the moon proudly awakens in rivalry with you!” A playful ode to beauty.

कस्तूरीतिलकं बाले भाले मा कुरु मा कुरु।
कलङ्कशङ्कया राहुर् ग्रसिष्यति तवाननम्॥

"Don’t adorn your forehead with musk, O maiden! Rahu might mistake your face for the moon and devour it!" — a humorous and loving exaggeration.
