He whose strength is fierce, whose might is like the sun, whose energy is unassailed — O Agni, come with the Maruts.

Who are fierce, and send down rain (arka, from arc to worship; āpo vā arkaḥ (Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa 10.6.5.2); hence, arka connotes water or rain), and are unsurpassed in strength; come, Agni with the Maruts.

The terrible, who sing their song, not to be overcome by might: O Agni, with those Maruts come.
