अ॒ग्निं न मा॑ मथि॒तं सं दि॑दीपः॒ प्र च॑क्षय कृणु॒हि वस्य॑सो नः । अथा॒ हि ते॒ मद॒ आ सो॑म॒ मन्ये॑ रे॒वाँ इ॑व॒ प्र च॑रा पु॒ष्टिमच्छ॑
agniṃ na mā mathitaṃ saṃ didīpaḥ pra cakṣaya kṛṇuhi vasyaso naḥ athā hi te mada ā soma manye revām̐ iva pra carā puṣṭimaccha
Do not let us extinguish Agni, keep him burning, kindle him who is radiant for our wealth. For I think that you, O Soma, are like Soma—bring forth abundant nourishment for us.
Soma, kindle me like the fire ignited by attrition, brighten (our eyes) and make us rich; I praise you nowfor exhilaration; come now, full of wealth, to nourish us.
Make me shine bright like fire produced by friction: give us a clearer sight and make us better. For in carouse I think of thee, O Soma, Shall I, as a rich man, attain to comfort?
