अध॑ स्व॒नादु॒त बि॑भ्युः पत॒त्रिणो॑ द्र॒प्सा यत्ते॑ यव॒सादो॒ व्यस्थि॑रन् । सु॒गं तत्ते॑ ताव॒केभ्यो॒ रथे॒भ्योऽग्ने॑ स॒ख्ये मा रि॑षामा व॒यं तव॑
adha svanāduta bibhyuḥ patatriṇo drapsā yatte yavasādo vyasthiran sugaṃ tatte tāvakebhyo rathebhyo'gne sakhye mā riṣāmā vayaṃ tava
Hearing the sound they trembled, the pilots and the charioteers, the slingers who scatter the seed—what you caused was the stirring of the threshing-floors. O Agni, befriend us, do not be angry with us.
At your roaring, even the birds are terrified; when your flames consuming the grass, have spread in all directions, (the wood) is easy of access to you and to your chariots; let us not, Agni, suffer injury through your friendship.
Then at thy roar the very birds are terrified, when, eating-up the grass, thy sparks fly forth abroad. Then is it easy for thee and thy car to pass. Let us not in thy friendship, Agni, suffer harm.
