Slokam-23. 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Slokam-23 : getting of all riches.


Tvaya hrithva vamam vapur aparitripthena manasa
Sarir'ardham sambhor aparam api sankhe hritham abhut;
Yad ethat tvadrupam sakalam arunabham trinayanam
Kuchabhyam anamram kutila-sadi-chuudala-makutam.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tvaya - by you
hrithva - having taken over
vamam vapur - the left half of the body
aparitripthena manasa - with a dissatisfied mind
sankhe hritham <- half of the body
sambhor aparam - of Sambhu (Siva)
aparam api - the other (half) also
sankhe - I think
hritham abhut - was taken
Yad- because
ethat  tvadrupam sakalam - this your form
skl< Aé[a-< - entirely red
iÇ nyn< - has three eyes
Kuchabhyam anamram - curved by the bosom
kutila-sadi-chuudala- the crescent moon
makutam. - crown crested.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Commentary :

I think having taken over the left half of the body of ambhu, with a (still) dissatisfied mind, the other (half) of the body was also taken over by you. Because, this form of your's is entirely red, has three eyes, is curved by the bosom (and) has a crown crested by the crescent moon.

(Sakti is dissatisfied by anything less than total identity with Siva.-Slokam 23 : The devotee is dissatisfied by nything less than seeing Siva.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion :

Your form in my mind, Is the colour of red of the rising sun, Is adorned with three eyes, as two heavy busts, Is slightly bent,And wears a crown with the crescent moon, And hence arises a doubt in me,
That you were not satisfied By half the body of Shambu that he gave, And occupied all his body.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
End.

"Mutual Attraction between male and female"

5. Mutual attraction between male and female:   Haris tvam aradhya pranata-jana-saubhagya-jananim Pura nari bhutva Pura-ripum api ksobham anayat; Smaro'pi tvam natva rati-nayana-lehyena vapusha Muninam apyantah prabhavati hi mohaya mahatam.        You who grant all the good things,  To those who bow at your feet,  Was worshipped by the Lord Vishnu,  Who took the pretty lovable feminine form,  And could move the mind of he who burnt the cities,  And make him fall in love with him.  And the God of love , Manmatha,  Took the form which is like nectar,  Drunk by the eyes by Rathi his wife,  After venerating you,  Was able to create passion ,  Even in the mind of Sages the great.
