ऋग्वेद 1.21 (श्लोक 1) - Project अर्थ (Artha)

इहेन्द्राग्नी उप ह्वये तयोरित्स्तोममुश्मसि । ता सोमं सोमपातमा ॥

ihendrāgnī upa hvaye tayoritstomamuśmasi | tā somaṃ somapātamā ||

Invoke hither Indra and Agni, to whom we desire to present our praise; let them, who are both copious drinkers of the Soma juice, (accept the libation).

ता यज्ञेषु प्र शंसतेन्द्राग्नी शुम्भता नरः । ता गायत्रेषु गायत ॥

tā yajñeṣu pra śaṃsatendrāgnī śumbhatā naraḥ | tā gāyatreṣu gāyata ||

Praise, men, Indra and Agni, in sacrifices, decorate them (with ornaments) and hymn them with hymns.

ता मित्रस्य प्रशस्तय इन्द्राग्नी ता हवामहे । सोमपा सोमपीतये ॥

tā mitrasya praśastaya indrāgnī tā havāmahe | somapā somapītaye ||

We invoke Indra and Agni, for the benefit of our friend (the instrumental tutor of the rite), drinkers of the Soma juice, to drink the libation.

उग्रा सन्ता हवामह उपेदं सवनं सुतम् । इन्द्राग्नी एह गच्छताम् ॥

ugrā santā havāmaha upedaṃ savanaṃ sutam | indrāgnī eha gacchatām ||

We invoke the two who are fierce (to their foes) to attend the rite, where the libation is prepared; Indra and Agni, come hither.

ता महान्ता सदस्पती इन्द्राग्नी रक्ष उब्जतम् । अप्रजाः सन्त्वत्रिणः ॥

tā mahāntā sadaspatī indrāgnī rakṣa ubjatam | aprajāḥ santvatriṇaḥ ||

May those two, Indra and Agni who are mighty, and guardians of the assembly, render the Rākṣas innocuous, and may the devourers (of men) be destitute of progeny.

तेन सत्येन जागृतमधि प्रचेतुने पदे । इन्द्राग्नी शर्म यच्छतम् ॥

tena satyena jāgṛtamadhi pracetune pade | indrāgnī śarma yacchatam ||

By this unfailing sacrifice, by you rendered vigilant, Indra and Agni, in the station which affords knowledge (of the consequence of acts), and bestow upon us happiness.
