जुषस्व सप्रथस्तमं वचो देवप्सरस्तमम्। हव्या जुह्वान आसनि॥

juṣasva saprathastamaṁ vaco devapsarastamam | havyā juhvāna āsani ||

ACCEPT our loudest-sounding hymn, food most delightful to the Gods, Pouring our offerings in thy mouth.

अथा ते अङ्गिरस्तमाग्ने वेधस्तम प्रियम्। वोचेम ब्रह्म सानसि॥

athā te aṅgirastamāgne vedhastama priyam | vocema brahma sānasi ||

Now, Agni, will we say to thee, O wisest and best Afigiras, Our precious, much-availing prayer.

कस्ते जामिर्जनानामग्ने को दाश्वध्वरः। को ह कस्मिन्नसि श्रितः॥

kaste jāmirjanānāmagne ko dāśvadhvaraḥ | ko ha kasminnasi śritaḥ ||

Who, Agni, is thy kin, of men? who is thy worthy worshipper? On whom dependent? who art thou?

त्वं जामिर्जनानामग्ने मित्रो असि प्रियः। सखा सखिभ्य ईड्यः॥

tvaṁ jāmirjanānāmagne mitro asi priyaḥ | sakhā sakhibhya īḍyaḥ ||

The kinsman, Agni, of mankind, their well beloved Friend art thou, A Friend whom friends may supplicate.

यजा नो मित्रावरुणा यजा देवाँ ऋतं बृहत्। अग्ने यक्षि स्वं दमम्॥

yajā no mitrāvaruṇā yajā devā ṛtaṁ bṛhat | agne yakṣi svaṁ damam ||

Bring to us Mitra, Varuna, bring the Gods to mighty sacrifice. Bring them, O Agni, to thine home.
