As in a priest's service to the gods, Invoker, you, Strong One, offer sacrifice and worship, So bring for us today all gods together, bring willingly the willing gods, O Agni.
May Agni, radiant herald of the morning, meet to be known, accept our praise with favor. Dear to all life, among mortals immortal, our guest, awake at dawn, is Jātavedas.
Whose might the very heavens admire with wonder: bright as the Sun he cloaks himself in light. He who sends forth, Eternal Purifier, shattered even the ancient works of Aśa.
You are a singer, Son! Our companion at feasts: Agni at birth prepared his food and path. Therefore grant us strength, O Strength-bestower. Win like a king: foes do not trouble your dwelling.
He who eats his firm, hard food swiftly and overtakes the nights as Vāyu rules. May we overcome those who resist your orders, like a steed casting down the fleeing foe.
Like Sūrya with his brilliant rays, O Agni, you spread across both worlds with splendor. Dressed in bright colors, he dispels darkness, like Auśija, with clear flame swiftly flying.
We have chosen you as most delightful for your beam's glow: hear our great praise, O Agni. The best men praise you as Indra's equal in strength, among gods, like Vāyu in your bounty.
Now, Agni, on tranquil paths of wealth come to us for our well-being: save us from sorrow. Grant chiefs and bard this boon. May we live happily, with heroic children, through a hundred winters.
