यथा कलमरक्षिण्या गीत्या वितततालया ।
खगोत्सादेन सहितं गीतानन्दः प्रसाध्यते ॥ १० ॥

yathā kalamarakṣiṇyā gītyā vitatatālayā |
khagotsādena sahitaṃ gītānandaḥ prasādhyate || 10 ||

Both of these should be conjoined together like the song united with percussion, as it is done by the husbandman and his wife in sowing the seeds and driving away the (seed-picking) birds from their fields of grain.
