Triṣṭubh
Is mantra mein Agni Jatavedas ko sabse aage khada kiya jaata hai yagya ke. Woh roshni wala marg darsata hai aur rasta saaf karta hai. Agni ki aag andhere raste ko ujiyala bana deti hai. Dushmani aur ladai door ho jaati hai Agni ke aane se. Yeh havishya aur barkat laata hai ghar mein. Isse yagya sahi chalta hai aur lambi umar milti hai. Aulad bhi achi milti hai aur taakat aati hai.

Yagya ke time Agni ko aage bethao. Woh khush karne wala hai, woh upar wala hai, woh sahi bolne wali shakti hai. Woh sabko roshni deta hai, woh bhajan ke saath aage chalta hai. Woh humara raasta saaf karta hai.
Mantra 2
तमु द्युमः पुर्वणीक होतरग्ने अग्निभिर्मनुष इधानः । स्तोमं यमस्मै ममतेव शूषं घृतं न शुचि मतयः पवन्ते ॥
Log Agni ko aag se jalate hain. Woh bahut roshni wala hai, uske chehre alag-alag hai. Uske liye bhajan banta hai, jaise kisi pyare ke liye dil karta hai. Soch saaf hoti hai, ghee jaisi chamak hoti hai.
Mantra 3
पीपाय स श्रवसा मर्त्येषु यो अग्नये ददाश विप्र उक्थैः । चित्राभिस्तमूतिभिश्चित्रशोचिर्व्रजस्य साता गोमतो दधाति ॥
Jo log Agni ko bhajan se puja karte hain, unka naam chamakta hai. Woh logon mein bada ban jaate hain. Agni unki madad karta hai, unhe gyan milta hai. Unka kaam banta hai, unki soch saaf hoti hai.
Mantra 4
आ यः पप्रौ जायमान उर्वी दूरेदृशा भासा कृष्णाध्वा । अध बहु चित्तम ऊर्म्यायास्तिरः शोचिषा ददृशे पावकः ॥
Jab yeh agni paida hua, toh usne apni chamak se poori duniya fail gaya. Door se bhi uski roshni dikhayi deti thi. Andhera raasta usne roshan kar diya. Phir toh itna andhera bhi, jo lahron mein chupa tha, usko agni ki aag ne saaf kar diya. Woh agni sabse door tak chamak raha tha.
Mantra 5
नू नश्चित्रं पुरुवाजाभिरूती अग्ने रयिं मघवद्भ्यश्च धेहि । ये राधसा श्रवसा चात्यन्यान्त्सुवीर्येभिश्चाभि सन्ति जनान् ॥
Agni, ab humein aisi daulat de jo chamakti ho. Tu bahut taqatwala hai, tu humari raksha karta hai. Jo log dete hain, unko bhi yeh daulat milni chahiye. Kuch log itne badh gaye ki doosron se aage nikal gaye. Apni badai aur taqat se woh log sabse upar khade hain.

Agni, is yagya ko theek se sthapit kar de. Jo bhi yagya mein baith ke havan karta hai, uski bhi madad kar. Bharadvaj rishiyon ke liye tu acchi baat bolta hai. Tu humein daulat dilane mein madad karta hai aur use pakka bhi kar deta hai.
Mantra 7
वि द्वेषांसीनुहि वर्धयेळां मदेम शतहिमाः सुवीराः ॥
Agni, dushmani aur nafrat ko door bhaga de. Acchi daulat ko badha de. Hum khush rahein, taakatwale rahein. Sau saal tak jeeyein, bade veer ban jayein.
