Transliteration

agníṃ hótāraṃ prá vṛṇe miyédhe gṛ́tsaṃ kavíṃ viśvavíd amū́ram | sá no yakṣad devátātā yajī́yān rāyé vā́jāya vanate maghā́ni ||

Translation

Agni, le Hotar, je le choisis dans l’assemblée du sacrifice: le voyant inspiré, l’omniscient, l’inébranlé. Qu’il sacrifie pour nous, établissant en nous les puissances divines; le plus digne des offrandes, qu’il nous gagne la richesse de l’être et les forces de l’accomplissement.
