RV 5.6.1

अग्निं तम् मन्ये यो वसुर् अस्तं यं यन्ति धेनवः । अस्तम् अर्वन्त आशवो ऽस्तं नित्यासो वाजिन इषं स्तोतृभ्य आ भर ॥

agniṃ tam manye yo vasur astaṃ yaṃ yanti dhenavaḥ | astam arvanta āśavo 'staṃ nityāso vājina iṣaṃ stotṛbhya ā bhara ||

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

I VALUE Agni that good Lord, the home to which the kine return: Whom fleet-foot coursers seek as home, and strong enduring steeds as home. Bring food to those who sing thy praise.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
