Assembled by the commentary: hrāṁ hrāṁ hrīṁ hrīṁ sarvaśatrūn vidrāvaya vidrāvaya mārtaṇḍasūnave namaḥ, "put all enemies to flight, put them to flight; salutation to the son of the Sun". Saturn is the son of Mārtaṇḍa, the Sun.
Commentary
Hariharānanda Bhāratī’s Sanskrit commentary, translated
"Hrāṁ hrām" and the rest. First he should say hrāṁ hrāṁ hrīṁ hrīṁ "sarvaśatrūn" (all enemies). Then he should say the word "vidrāvaya" twice (put to flight). Then he should say "mārtaṇḍasūnave" (to the son of the Sun). After that he should say "namaḥ". Put together, hrāṁ hrāṁ hrīṁ hrīṁ sarvaśatrūn vidrāvaya vidrāvaya mārtaṇḍasūnave namaḥ is held to be the mantra for Śanaiścara (Saturn).
