अ॒स्माक॑मग्ने म॒घव॑त्सु दीदि॒ह्यध॒ श्वसी॑वान्वृष॒भो दमू॑नाः । अ॒वास्या॒ शिशु॑मतीरदीदे॒र्वर्मे॑व यु॒त्सु प॑रि॒जर्भु॑राणः
asmākamagne maghavatsu dīdihyadha śvasīvānvṛṣabho damūnāḥ avāsyā śiśumatīradīdervarmeva yutsu parijarbhurāṇaḥ
O Agni, in our gatherings you shone among the riches; breathe forth, O bull, with your life-energies. By the rivers’ youthful banks, of full wisdom, clothed with splendour, you warm the children of the waters; you surround the abodes and the many born ones.
Shine, Agni, in our opulent (abodes), vivifying, showering (blessings), bounteous, casting off infantine (glimmerings); blaze (fiercely), repelling repeatedly, like a coat of mail, (our enemies) in combats.
O Agni, shine resplendent with our wealthy chiefs, like a loud-snorting bull, accustomed to the house. Thou casting off thine infant wrappings blazest forth as though thou hadst put on a coat of mail for war.
