आ सूर्यो॒ न भा॑नु॒मद्भि॑र॒र्कैरग्ने॑ त॒तन्थ॒ रोद॑सी॒ वि भा॒सा । चि॒त्रो न॑य॒त्परि॒ तमां॑स्य॒क्तः शो॒चिषा॒ पत्म॑न्नौशि॒जो न दीय॑न्
ā sūryo na bhānumadbhirarkairagne tatantha rodasī vi bhāsā citro nayatpari tamāṃsyaktaḥ śociṣā patmannauśijo na dīyan
O Sun, you are not the light with small rays; Agni, your radiant coursing shines like dawn. Vivid splendour led the farthest of his forms; lamenting, the tender shoots did not give birth.
You over spread, Agni, heaven and earth with radiance, like the sun with his lustrous rays; the wonderful Agni disperses the glooms like the adored (sun) moving on his path, imbued with light.
Like Surya with his fulgent rays, O Agni, thou overspreadest both the worlds with splendour. Decked with bright colour he dispels the darkness, like Ausija, with clear flame swifily flying.
