Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 6.11.5

RV 6.11.5

वृञ्जे ह यन् नमसा बर्हिर् अग्नाव् अयामि स्रुग् घृतवती सुवृक्तिः । अम्यक्षि सद्म सदने पृथिव्या अश्रायि यज्ञः सूर्ये न चक्षुः ॥

vṛñje ha yan namasā barhir agnāv ayāmi srug ghṛtavatī suvṛktiḥ | amyakṣi sadma sadane pṛthivyā aśrāyi yajñaḥ sūrye na cakṣuḥ ||

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

When I with reverence clip the grass for Agni, when the trimmed ladle, fullof oil, is lifted, Firm on the seat of earth is based the altar: eye-like, the sacrifice is directed Sun-ward.
