प्र होत्रे पूर्व्यं वचो ऽग्नये भरता बृहत् । विपां ज्योतींषि बिभ्रते न वेधसे ॥
pra hotre pūrvyaṃ vaco 'gnaye bharatā bṛhat | vipāṃ jyotīṃṣi bibhrate na vedhase ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
To Agni, the Invoking Priest, offer your best, your lofty speech, To him Ordainer-like who brings the light of songs.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
