1

O Agni, Holy and Divine, with brilliance and your sweet speech, Bring here and worship the Devas.

2

We invoke you, who pour oil, radiant one! Who gaze upon the Sun, Bring the Devas here to the feast.

3

We have kindled you, Wise One, caller of the Devas to the feast, O Agni, great in sacrifice.

4

O Agni, bring all the Devas with you, come to our sacrificial offering: We choose you as the Invoker.

5

Bring, Agni, to the worshipper who offers the juice, heroic strength: Sit with the Devas on the grass.

6

Victorious over many, Agni, you, kindled, uphold the laws, Laud-worthy, envoy of the Devas.

7

Set Agni Jātavedas down, bearer of our sacred offerings, Most Youthful, God and Minister.

8

Proceed our sacrifice, including all the Devas, today: Scatter holy grass for their place.

9

May the Maruts sit there, the Aśvins, Mitra, Varuṇa: The Devas with all their company.
