Roused from their bosom is the Dawns' beloved, the joyous Priest, most sapient, Purifier. He gives a signal both to Gods and mortals, to Gods oblations, riches to the pious.
स सुक्रतुर् यो वि दुरः पणीनाम् पुनानो अर्कम् पुरुभोजसं नः । होता मन्द्रो विशां दमूनास् तिरस् तमो ददृशे राम्याणाम् ॥
sa sukratur yo vi duraḥ paṇīnām punāno arkam purubhojasaṃ naḥ | hotā mandro viśāṃ damūnās tiras tamo dadṛśe rāmyāṇām ||
Most wise is he who, forcing doors of Panis, brought the bright Sun to us who feedeth many. The cheerful Priest, men's Friend and home-companion, through still night's darkness he is made apparent.
Wise, ne.'er deceived, uncircumscribed, refulgent, our gracious guest, a Friend with good attendants, Shines forth with wondrous light before the Mornings; the young plants hath he entered, Child of Waters.
ईळेन्यो वो मनुषो युगेषु समनगा अशुचज् जातवेदाः । सुसंदृशा भानुना यो विभाति प्रति गावः समिधानम् बुधन्त ॥
īḷenyo vo manuṣo yugeṣu samanagā aśucaj jātavedāḥ | susaṃdṛśā bhānunā yo vibhāti prati gāvaḥ samidhānam budhanta ||
Seeking our gatherings, he, your Jatavedas, hath shone adorable through human ages, Who gleams refulgent with his lovely lustre: the kine have waked to meet him when enkindled.
Go on thy message to the Gods, and fail not, O Agni, with their band who pray and worship. Bring all the Gods that they may give us riches, Sarasvati, the Maruts, Asvins, Waters.
Vasistha, when enkindling thee, O Agni, hath slain jarutha. Give us wealth in plenty. Sing praise in choral song, O Jatavedas. Ye Gods, preserve us evermore with blessings.
