samiddheṣvagniṣvānajānā yatasrucā barhiru tistirāṇā tīvraiḥ somaiḥ pariṣiktebhirarvāgendrāgnī saumanasāya yātam
In kindled fires, born from the flames, the bright ones, moving forth, flow outward like rivers. With vigorous Somās, the great Agni goes in the Somniferous rite of the sky-lord.
The first being kindled the two (priests stand by) sprinkling the clarified butter from the ladles, which they raise, and spreading the sacred grass (upon the altar); therefore, Indra and Agni, come before us for our gratification, (attracted) by stimulating Soma sprinkled all round.
Both stand adorned, when fires are duly kindled, spreading the sacred grass, with lifted ladles. Drawn by strong Soma juice poured forth around us, come, Indra-Agni, and display your favour.
