Like heavenly maidens in his birthplace Protect this our sacrifice and offering. h O ye divine Hotrs, sing ye To our uplifted sacrifice, to Agni's tongue, Make for us good offering. i May the three goddesses sit on this strew, Ida, Sarasvati [2], Bharati, the great, being sung. k That seminal fluid of ours, wondrous, Abundant, may Tvastr release As increase of wealth with good heroes, as offspring to us. l O tree, let free, Bestowing with thyself among the gods; Let Agni as queller make ready the oblation. m O Agni, utter 'Hail!' O all−knower, over the oblation for Indra; May all the gods rejoice in this offering. n The golden germ first arose; Born he was the only lord of creation; He supporteth the earth and the sky [3] To what god shall we offer with oblation? o He that alone by his might is king Of the breathing, the winking world, Who is lord of these bipeds and quadrupeds; To what god shall we offer with oblation? p He who is giver of breath, giver of strength, Upon whose bidding all, even the gods, wait, Whose shadow is immortality and death; To what god shall we offer with oblation? He whose are these snowy mountains through his might, Whose they call the ocean with the Rasa [4], Whose two arms are these quarters; To what god shall we offer with oblation? r To whom the armies stablished Through his aid gazed with minds disturbed, Over whom on the rising of the sun it goeth; To what god shall we offer with oblation? s He by whom the dread earth and the sky were made firm, By whom the heaven was established, by whom the vault, Who is the measure of the region in the atmosphere; To what god shall we offer with oblation? t When the waters, the great ones, went Bearing all [5] strength, begetting Agni, Then one breath of the gods arose; To what god shall we offer with oblation? u He who in his might beheld the waters Bearing strength, begetting Agni, Who was the god alone over the gods; To what god shall we offer with oblation?
