Transliteration

yád áyukthā aruṣā́ róhitā ráthe vā́ta-jūtā vṛṣabhásyeva te rávaḥ | ā́d invasi vaníno dhūmá-ketunā́gne sakhyé mā́ riṣāmā vayáṃ táva ||

Translation

Wenn du die rötlichen, roten Rosse an den Wagen spannst, vom Wind getrieben — dann ist dein Brüllen wie das eines Stieres. Dann setzt du die Wälder in Bewegung mit deinem Rauchbanner. O Agni, in deiner Freundschaft mögen wir keinen Schaden erleiden — mögen wir geborgen sein unter deiner Macht.
