Agni and Viṣṇu, great is your dear splendour; the course of ghee—its hidden powers—ye two enjoy. In house and house, waxing through good praise, toward you may the tongue send forth the ghee aloft.
Agni und Viṣṇu, groß ist euer lieber Glanz; den Weg des Ghee – seine verborgenen Kräfte – genießt ihr beide. In jedem Haus, durch gutes Lob wachsend, möge die Zunge euch das Ghee hoch empor entsenden.
