Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.10

उषो न जारः पृथु पाजो अश्रेद् दविद्युतद् दीद्यच् छोशुचानः । वृषा हरिः शुचिर् आ भाति भासा धियो हिन्वान उशतीर् अजीगः ॥

uṣo na jāraḥ pṛthu pājo aśred davidyutad dīdyac chośucānaḥ | vṛṣā hariḥ śucir ā bhāti bhāsā dhiyo hinvāna uśatīr ajīgaḥ ||

He hath sent forth, bright, radiant, and refulgent, like the Dawn's Lover, his far-spreading lustre. Pure in his splendour shines the golden Hero: our longing thoughts hath he aroused and wakened.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

स्वर् ण वस्तोर् उषसाम् अरोचि यज्ञं तन्वाना उशिजो न मन्म । अग्निर् जन्मानि देव आ वि विद्वान् द्रवद् दूतो देवयावा वनिष्ठः ॥

svar ṇa vastor uṣasām aroci yajñaṃ tanvānā uśijo na manma | agnir janmāni deva ā vi vidvān dravad dūto devayāvā vaniṣṭhaḥ ||

He, like the Sun, hath shone while Morn is breaking, and priests who weave the sacrifice sing praises, Agni, the God, who knows their generations and visits Gods, most bounteous, rapid envoy.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अच्छा गिरो मतयो देवयन्तीर् अग्निं यन्ति द्रविणम् भिक्षमाणाः । सुसंदृशं सुप्रतीकं स्वञ्चं हव्यवाहम् अरतिम् मानुषाणाम् ॥

acchā giro matayo devayantīr agniṃ yanti draviṇam bhikṣamāṇāḥ | susaṃdṛśaṃ supratīkaṃ svañcaṃ havyavāham aratim mānuṣāṇām ||

Our songs and holy hymns go forth to Agni, seeking the God and asking him for riches, Him fair to see, of goodly aspect, mighty, men's messenger who carries their oblations.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

इन्द्रं नो अग्ने वसुभिः सजोषा रुद्रं रुद्रेभिर् आ वहा बृहन्तम् । आदित्येभिर् अदितिं विश्वजन्याम् बृहस्पतिम् ऋक्वभिर् विश्ववारम् ॥

indraṃ no agne vasubhiḥ sajoṣā rudraṃ rudrebhir ā vahā bṛhantam | ādityebhir aditiṃ viśvajanyām bṛhaspatim ṛkvabhir viśvavāram ||

Joined with the Vasus, Agni, bring thou Indra bring hither mighty Rudra with the Rudras, Aditi good to all men with Adityas, Brhaspati All-bounteous, with the Singers.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

मन्द्रं होतारम् उशिजो यविष्ठम् अग्निं विश ईळते अध्वरेषु । स हि क्षपावां अभवद् रयीणाम् अतन्द्रो दूतो यजथाय देवान् ॥

mandraṃ hotāram uśijo yaviṣṭham agniṃ viśa īḷate adhvareṣu | sa hi kṣapāvāṃ abhavad rayīṇām atandro dūto yajathāya devān ||

Men eagerly implore at sacrifices Agni, Most Youthful God, the joyous Herald. For he is Lord and Ruler over riches, and for Gods' worship an unwearied envoy.
