Bring your song and hymn to Agni, the Asura-slayer, the illuminator of all and giver of good thoughts. Like an offering on the grass, to please him, I bring this to Vaiśvānara, the hymn-inspiring one.

You, with your flame, O Agni, brightly glowing, at your birth filled full the earth and sky. You, with your might, Vaiśvānara Jātavedas, set the gods free from the curse that bound them.

Agni, when you looked upon all creatures, like a quick herdsman tending his cattle. The path to prayer, Vaiśvānara, you found. May the gods always protect us with blessings.
