अबोध्यग्निः समिधा जनानां प्रति धेनुमिवायतीमुषासम् । यह्वा इव प्र वयामुज्जिहानाः प्र भानवः सिस्रते नाकमच्छ ॥

abodhyagniḥ samidhā janānāṃ prati dhenumivāyatīmuṣāsam | yahvā iva pra vayāmujjihānāḥ pra bhānavaḥ sisrate nākamaccha ||

Agni is awakened by the fuel (supplied) by the priests at the dawn, approaching like a cow (to pasture); his flames rise up to the sky like stately (trees) throwing aloft their branches.

अबोधि होता यजथाय देवानूर्ध्वो अग्निः सुमनाः प्रातरस्थात् । समिद्धस्य रुशददर्शि पाजो महान्देवस्तमसो निरमोचि ॥

abodhi hotā yajathāya devānūrdhvo agniḥ sumanāḥ prātarasthāt | samiddhasya ruśadadarśi pājo mahāndevastamaso niramoci ||

The offer of the oblation is awakened for the worship of the gods; favourably minded, Agni has rise up with the dawn; the radiant vigour of the kindled (fire) is manifested; the great deity has been liberated from the darkness.

यदीं गणस्य रशनामजीगः शुचिरङ्क्ते शुचिभिर्गोभिरग्निः । आद्दक्षिणा युज्यते वाजयन्त्युत्तानामूर्ध्वो अधयज्जुहूभिः ॥

yadīṃ gaṇasya raśanāmajīgaḥ śuciraṅkte śucibhirgobhiragniḥ | āddakṣiṇā yujyate vājayantyuttānāmūrdhvo adhayajjuhūbhiḥ ||

When Agni has seized upon the (confining) girdle of the aggregated (world), then, bright-shining, he makes all manifest with brilliant rays; thereupon the precious food-desiring (oblations) is added (to the flame), and Agni, soaring aloft, drinks it as it is (spread out) recumbent by the ladles.

अग्निमच्छा देवयतां मनांसि चक्षूंषीव सूर्ये सं चरन्ति । यदीं सुवाते उषसा विरूपे श्वेतो वाजी जायते अग्रे अह्नाम् ॥

agnimacchā devayatāṃ manāṃsi cakṣūṃṣīva sūrye saṃ caranti | yadīṃ suvāte uṣasā virūpe śveto vājī jāyate agre ahnām ||

The minds of the devout turn to Agni, as the eyes (of men) look towards the sun; when the multiform (heaven and earth) bring him forth along with the dawn, he is born as a white courser in the beginning of the days.

जनिष्ट हि जेन्यो अग्रे अह्नां हितो हितेष्वरुषो वनेषु । दमेदमे सप्त रत्ना दधानोऽग्निर्होता नि षसादा यजीयान् ॥

janiṣṭa hi jenyo agre ahnāṃ hito hiteṣvaruṣo vaneṣu | damedame sapta ratnā dadhāno'gnirhotā ni ṣasādā yajīyān ||

(Agni), capable of birth, is born in the beginning of the days; radiant, he is deposited in the friendly woods, and then the adorable Agni, the offerer of the oblation, displaying seven precious (rays), is seated in every house.

अग्निर्होता न्यसीदद्यजीयानुपस्थे मातुः सुरभा उ लोके । युवा कविः पुरुनिष्ठ ऋतावा धर्ता कृष्टीनामुत मध्य इद्धः ॥

agnirhotā nyasīdadyajīyānupasthe mātuḥ surabhā u loke | yuvā kaviḥ puruniṣṭha ṛtāvā dhartā kṛṣṭīnāmuta madhya iddhaḥ ||

The adorable Agni, the offerer of the oblation, has sat down in a fragrant plural ce on the top of his mother (earth); youthful, wise, many-stationed, the celebrator of sacrifice, the sustainer (of all), kindled (he abides) among men.

प्र णु त्यं विप्रमध्वरेषु साधुमग्निं होतारमीऴते नमोभिः । आ यस्ततान रोदसी ऋतेन नित्यं मृजन्ति वाजिनं घृतेन ॥

pra ṇu tyaṃ vipramadhvareṣu sādhumagniṃ hotāramīḻate namobhiḥ | ā yastatāna rodasī ṛtena nityaṃ mṛjanti vājinaṃ ghṛtena ||

They glorify at present withhymns that Agni who is intelligent, the fulfiller (of desires) at sacrifices, the offer of oblations, who has charged heaven and earth with water, and whom they always worship with clarified butter as the bestower of food.

मार्जाल्यो मृज्यते स्वे दमूनाः कविप्रशस्तो अतिथिः शिवो नः । सहस्रशृङ्गो वृषभस्तदोजा विश्वाँ अग्ने सहसा प्रास्यन्यान् ॥

mārjālyo mṛjyate sve damūnāḥ kavipraśasto atithiḥ śivo naḥ | sahasraśṛṅgo vṛṣabhastadojā viśvā~ agne sahasā prāsyanyān ||

Entitled to worship, he is worshipped in his own (abode); humble-minded, eminent among sages, our auspicious guest, the thousand-rayed, the showerer (of benefits), of well-known might, you, Agni, surpass all others in strength.

प्र सद्यो अग्ने अत्येष्यन्यानाविर्यस्मै चारुतमो बभूथ । ईऴेन्यो वपुष्यो विभावा प्रियो विशामतिथिर्मानुषीणाम् ॥

pra sadyo agne atyeṣyanyānāviryasmai cārutamo babhūtha | īḻenyo vapuṣyo vibhāvā priyo viśāmatithirmānuṣīṇām ||

(Too) quickly, Agni, do you pass to others from him to whom you have been manifest; most beautiful, adorable, radiant, many-shining, the loved of people, the guest of men.

तुभ्यं भरन्ति क्षितयो यविष्ठ बलिमग्ने अन्तित ओत दूरात् । आ भन्दिष्ठस्य सुमतिं चिकिद्धि बृहत्ते अग्ने महि शर्म भद्रम् ॥

tubhyaṃ bharanti kṣitayo yaviṣṭha balimagne antita ota dūrāt | ā bhandiṣṭhasya sumatiṃ cikiddhi bṛhatte agne mahi śarma bhadram ||

To you, young (of the gods), men present oblations, whether nigh or from far; accept the praise of him who most extols you; for the felicity (which you confer). Agni is great, vast, auspicious.

आद्य रथं भानुमो भानुमन्तमग्ने तिष्ठ यजतेभिः समन्तम् । विद्वान्पथीनामुर्वन्तरिक्षमेह देवान्हविरद्याय वक्षि ॥

ādya rathaṃ bhānumo bhānumantamagne tiṣṭha yajatebhiḥ samantam | vidvānpathīnāmurvantarikṣameha devānhaviradyāya vakṣi ||

Ascend today, radiant Agni, your resplendent, well-conducted chariot, together with the adorable (gods), cognizant of the ways (of worship), bring hither, by the vast firmament, the gods to partake of the oblation.

अवोचाम कवये मेध्याय वचो वन्दारु वृषभाय वृष्णे । गविष्ठिरो नमसा स्तोममग्नौ दिवीव रुक्ममुरुव्यञ्चमश्रेत् ॥

avocāma kavaye medhyāya vaco vandāru vṛṣabhāya vṛṣṇe | gaviṣṭhiro namasā stomamagnau divīva rukmamuruvyañcamaśret ||

We have uttered aloud this encomiastic praise to the wise, holy, vigorous (Agni), the showerer (of benefits); Gaviṣṭhira offers with reverence (this) praise to Agni like the wide-sojourning (sun), effulgent in the sky.
