नागाः पिशाचा गन्धर्वाः पितरो यक्षराक्षसाः । अभिद्रवन्ति ये ये त्वां ब्रह्माद्या घ्नन्तु तान् सदा ॥२१॥

Snakes (nāgāḥ), ghosts (piśācāḥ), celestial beings (gandharvāḥ), ancestors (pitaraḥ), and beings such as yakṣas and rākṣasas (yakṣa-rākṣasāḥ)—all these (ye ye) who might harm you (tvāṃ), may they always be destroyed (ghnantu tān sadā) by Brahmā and others (brahmādya). This verse invokes the protection from various supernatural entities that might cause harm, requesting their destruction by divine and spiritual forces.
