Rig Veda 7.4.2: Mandala 7, Sukta 4, Mantra 2
Sukta 7.4
स गृत्सो अग्निस्तरुणश्चिदस्तु यतो यविष्ठो अजनिष्ट मातुः । सं यो वना युवते शुचिदन्भूरि चिदन्ना समिदत्ति सद्यः ॥
sa gṛtsó agnístarúṇaś cid astu yáto yáviṣṭho ájaniṣṭa mātúḥ | sáṃ yó vánā yuváte śúci-dam bhū́ri cid ánnā sám íd átti sadyáḥ ||
May that Agni be for us the keen and youthful power, he who from the Mother is born as the youngest; he who swiftly joins himself to the forests, giving purity, and at once consumes even abundant foods—so may he take up in us all that is to be transformed into light.
