Burning up his garment, the blazing fire rose up, O lord of the gods.
कृष्णस्तद्वर्द्धनं दृष्ट्वा ससर्जापः स्वलीलया
Seeing that increase, Krishna, by his own play, created water.

From that time onward, fire is extinguished by water.
उत्तस्थौ तज्जलादेकः पुमान्स वरुणः स्मृतः
From those waters, a single man arose—he is known as Varuna.
आविर्बभूव कन्यैका तद्वह्नेर्वामपार्श्वतः
From the left side of that fire, a single maiden appeared.
जलेशस्य वामपार्श्वात्कन्या चैका बभूव सा 1.4.
From the left side of the lord of waters, a single maiden was born.
बभूव पवनः श्रीमान्विभोर्निश्वासवायुतः
The glorious wind arose, born from the breath of the Supreme.
तस्य वायोर्वामपार्श्वात्कन्या चैका बभूव ह
From the left side of that wind, indeed, a maiden was born.

By the arrow of desire from Krishna, a discharge of seed occurred.
