अनिरेण वचसा फल्ग्वेन प्रतीत्येन कृधुनातृपासः । अधा ते अग्ने किम् इहा वदन्त्य् अनायुधास आसता सचन्ताम् ॥
anireṇa vacasā phalgvena pratītyena kṛdhunātṛpāsaḥ | adhā te agne kim ihā vadanty anāyudhāsa āsatā sacantām ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Unsatisfied, with speech devoid of vigour, scanty and frivolous and inconclusive, Wherefore do they address thee here, O Agni? Let these who have no weapons suffer sorrow.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
