AGNI, life-power and fame are thine: thy fires blaze mightily, thou rich in wealth of beams! Sage, passing bright, thou givest to the worshipper, with strength, the food that merits laud.

With brilliant, purifying sheen, with perfect sheen thou liftest up thyself in light.

Thou, visiting both thy Mothers, aidest them as Son: thou joinest close the Earth and Heaven.

O Jātavedas, Son of Strength, rejoice ihyself, gracious, in our fair hymns and songs. In thee are treasured various forms of strengthening food, born nobly and of wondrous help.

Agni, spread forth, as Ruler, over living things: give wealth to us, Immortal Deva. Thou shinest out from beauty fair to look upon: thou leadest us to conquering power.

To him, the wise, who orders offerings, who hath great riches un der his control, Thou givest blest award of good, and plenteous food, givest him wealth that conquers all.

The men have set before them them for their welfare Agni, strong, visible to all, the Holy. Thee, Godlike One, with ears to hear, most famous, men's generations magnify with praise-songs.
