भवा नो अग्ने सुमना उपेतौ सखेव सख्ये पितरेव साधुः । पुरुद्रुहो हि क्षितयो जनानाम् प्रति प्रतीचीर् दहताद् अरातीः ॥
bhavā no agne sumanā upetau sakheva sakhye pitareva sādhuḥ | purudruho hi kṣitayo janānām prati pratīcīr dahatād arātīḥ ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Agni, be kind to us when we approach thee good as a friend to friend, as sire and mother. The races of mankind are great oppressors burn up malignity that strives against us.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
