RV 2.2.1

यज्ञेन वर्धत जातवेदसम् अग्निं यजध्वं हविषा तना गिरा । समिधानं सुप्रयसं स्वर्णरं द्युक्षं होतारं वृजनेषु धूर्षदम् ॥

yajñena vardhata jātavedasam agniṃ yajadhvaṃ haviṣā tanā girā | samidhānaṃ suprayasaṃ svarṇaraṃ dyukṣaṃ hotāraṃ vṛjaneṣu dhūrṣadam ||

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

With sacrifice exalt Agni who knows all life; worship him 'with oblation and the song of praise, Well kindled, nobly fed; heaven's Lord, Celestial Priest, who labours at the pole where deeds of might are done.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
