prajāpateḥ — of Prajāpati Dakṣa; dagdha-śīrṣṇaḥ — whose head has been burned to ashes; bhavatu — let there be; aja-mukham — with the face of a goat; śiraḥ — a head; mitrasya — of Mitra; cakṣuṣā — through the eyes; īkṣeta — may see; bhāgam — share; svam — his own; barhiṣaḥ — of the sacrifice; bhagaḥ — Bhaga.

Lord Śiva continued: Since the head of Dakṣa has already been burned to ashes, he will have the head of a goat. The demigod known as Bhaga will be able to see his share of sacrifice through the eyes of Mitra.
