Sukta 5
उत् क्रामातः परि चेदतप्तस्तप्ताच्चरोरधि नाकं तृतीयम्। अग्नेरग्निरधि सं बभूविथ ज्योतिष्मन्तमभि लोकं जयैतम्
út krāmátaḥ pári céd átaptaḥ taptā́c ca carór ádhi nā́kaṃ tṛtī́yam | agné r agnír ádhi sáṃ babhūvitha jyótiṣmantam abhí lókaṃ jayáitam ||
Forth from the stepping onward—if he be not ill-baked—(yea) from the well-heated, and from the cooked oblation, mount ye to the third heaven. Upon Agni hath Fire firmly come to be: win ye this luminous world for your portion.
অগ্রসর পদক্ষেপ থেকে—যদি তা কাঁচা না থাকে—ভালভাবে উত্তপ্ত (অগ্নি) থেকে, এবং সিদ্ধ চরু (পাক-আহুতি) থেকে, তোমরা তৃতীয় স্বর্গে আরোহণ করো। অগ্নির উপর অগ্নি দৃঢ়ভাবে প্রতিষ্ঠিত হয়েছে; এই জ্যোতির্ময় লোককে তোমাদের অংশ করে জয় করো।
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (sūkta attributed in later indices to Atharvan/Angiras-type seers; exact r̥ṣi assignment depends on Anukramaṇī for AVŚ 9.5).
Devata: Agni; also the ‘luminous world’ (jyotiṣmat-loka) as goal-deity.
Chandas: Triṣṭubh-like cadence (edition-dependent; AV often shows mixed/irregular triṣṭubh in such svargya passages).
