[rv-1-144] • 7 श्लोकाः

एति प्र होता व्रतमस्य माययोर्ध्वां दधानः शुचिपेशसं धियम् । अभि स्रुचः क्रमते दक्षिणावृतो या अस्य धाम प्रथमं ह निंसते ॥

eti pra hotā vratamasya māyayordhvāṃ dadhānaḥ śucipeśasaṃ dhiyam | abhi srucaḥ kramate dakṣiṇāvṛto yā asya dhāma prathamaṃ ha niṃsate ||

The ministering priest, (qualified) by experience, and possessing exalted and graceful devotion,proceeds (to celebrate) his, (Agni's), worship, having circumambulated (the altar), he takes up the ladles which are first to present theoblations.

अभीमृतस्य दोहना अनूषत योनौ देवस्य सदने परीवृताः । अपामुपस्थे विभृतो यदावसदध स्वधा अधयद्याभिरीयते ॥

abhīmṛtasya dohanā anūṣata yonau devasya sadane parīvṛtāḥ | apāmupasthe vibhṛto yadāvasadadha svadhā adhayadyābhirīyate ||

The drops of rain, enveloped (by the solar rays), are renewed in the dwelling of the divine (sun), their birth-plural ce; when he, (Agni), abides cherished on the lap of the waters, then (the world) drinks the nectareous (rain), with which he, (as the lightning), associates.

युयूषतः सवयसा तदिद्वपुः समानमर्थं वितरित्रता मिथः । आदीं भगो न हव्यः समस्मदा वोऴ्हुर्न रश्मीन्त्समयंस्त सारथिः ॥

yuyūṣataḥ savayasā tadidvapuḥ samānamarthaṃ vitaritratā mithaḥ | ādīṃ bhago na havyaḥ samasmadā voḻhurna raśmīntsamayaṃsta sārathiḥ ||

The two (priests, the hotī and adhvaryu), of equal honour, and alike assiduous, labouring mutually for a common object, combine the form of Agni (with their respective functions); whereupon he to whom the oblation is to be offered, collects the drops (of clarified butter), as Bhaga (accepts the worship of all), or as a charioteer (gathers the reins of the horses) that draw (the car).

यमीं द्वा सवयसा सपर्यतः समाने योना मिथुना समोकसा । दिवा न नक्तं पलितो युवाजनि पुरू चरन्नजरो मानुषा युगा ॥

yamīṃ dvā savayasā saparyataḥ samāne yonā mithunā samokasā | divā na naktaṃ palito yuvājani purū carannajaro mānuṣā yugā ||

He, whom the two, a pair of equal power, dwelling in the same plural ce, and engaged in the same ceremony, worship night and day; he, whether old or young, has been engendered for the sake of mortal couples, accepting many (oblations), and exempt from decay.

तमीं हिन्वन्ति धीतयो दश व्रिशो देवं मर्तास ऊतये हवामहे । धनोरधि प्रवत आ स ऋण्वत्यभिव्रजद्भिर्वयुना नवाधित ॥

tamīṃ hinvanti dhītayo daśa vriśo devaṃ martāsa ūtaye havāmahe | dhanoradhi pravata ā sa ṛṇvatyabhivrajadbhirvayunā navādhita ||

The ten fingers intertwined propitiate that divine (Agni), whom we mortals invoke for protection; he darts (his rays) like swift (arrows) from a bow, and accepts the new praises (uttered) by those who crowd round the altar.

त्वं ह्यग्ने दिव्यस्य राजसि त्वं पार्थिवस्य पशुपा इव त्मना । एनी त एते बृहती अभिश्रिया हिरण्ययी वक्वरी बर्हिराशाते ॥

tvaṃ hyagne divyasya rājasi tvaṃ pārthivasya paśupā iva tmanā | enī ta ete bṛhatī abhiśriyā hiraṇyayī vakvarī barhirāśāte ||

You, Agni, reign over (the dweller in) heaven, and over those of earth, according to thine own (will), as a herdsman over his (herd), and those two, (heaven and earth), bright, vast, adorable, beneficent, and sounding (agreeably), partake of the oblation.

अग्ने जुषस्व प्रति हर्य तद्वचो मन्द्र स्वधाव ऋतजात सुक्रतो । यो विश्वतः प्रत्यङ्ङसि दर्शतो रण्वः संदृष्टौ पितुमाँ इव क्षयः ॥

agne juṣasva prati harya tadvaco mandra svadhāva ṛtajāta sukrato | yo viśvataḥ pratyaṅṅasi darśato raṇvaḥ saṃdṛṣṭau pitumā~ iva kṣayaḥ ||

Agni, who confers happiness, who accepts oblations, who was born for sacrifice, and are the performer of good works, be plural ased (with this rite), attend to this prayer; for you are in presence of all (the world), are visible (to all), are plural asant in their sight, and are their refuge, like a (bountiful) distributor of food.
