Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.71.10

RV 1.71.10

मा नो अग्ने सख्या पित्र्याणि प्र मर्षिष्ठा अभि विदुष् कविः सन् । नभो न रूपं जरिमा मिनाति पुरा तस्या अभिशस्तेर् अधीहि ॥

mā no agne sakhyā pitryāṇi pra marṣiṣṭhā abhi viduṣ kaviḥ san | nabho na rūpaṃ jarimā mināti purā tasyā abhiśaster adhīhi ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

O Agni, break not our ancestral friendship, Sage as thou art, endowed with deepest knowledge. Old age, like gathering cloud, impairs the body: before that evil be come nigh protect me.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
