RV 10.46.8

प्र जिह्वया भरते वेपो अग्निः प्र वयुनानि चेतसा पृथिव्याः । तम् आयवः शुचयन्तम् पावकम् मन्द्रं होतारं दधिरे यजिष्ठम् ॥

pra jihvayā bharate vepo agniḥ pra vayunāni cetasā pṛthivyāḥ | tam āyavaḥ śucayantam pāvakam mandraṃ hotāraṃ dadhire yajiṣṭham ||

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

The tongue of Agni bears away the praise song, and, through his care for Earth, her operations. Him, bright and radiant, living men have stablished as their blithe Priest, the Chief of Sacrificers.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
