The wise one does not awaken in falsehood, the poet-priest ever vigilant; O Agni, you kindle brightness in the sky.

You verily are wise, seated at the oblation, wakeful as the seer (for the welfare of living beings); Agni,you ever shine in the sky.

For thou art sharer of our feast, wise, ever watchful as a Sage: Agni, thou shinest in the sky.
