a His rays bear up the god
Who knoweth all,
The sun for all to see.
b The radiant countenance of the gods hath risen,
The eye of Mitra, Varuna, Agni;
He hath filled the sky and earth and atmosphere;
The sun is the self of all that moveth and standeth.
c O Agni, lead us by a fair path to wealth,
O god, knowing all the ways;
Drive from us the sin that maketh us wander;
We will accord to thee most abundant honour.
d Go to the sky, fly to heaven.
c With my form [1] I approach your form; with my age your age.
f May Tutha, all knowing, allot to you in the highest firmament.
g This gift of thine, Agni, cometh, impelled by the Soma.
h Lead it by the path of Mitra.
i Go ye on by the path of holy order, of brilliant gifts,
Leading prosperity by the path of the sacrifice.
k May I win a Brahman to-day, a seer and sprung from seers, of (famous) father
and grandfather, fit for the sacrificial gift.
l Gaze on the heaven, gaze on the atmosphere.
m Join those in the seat.
n Given by us, go to the gods, full of sweetness; enter the giver; without
leaving us fare by the path leading to the gods; sit in the world of the
righteous.
o Be this complete for us.
