Vasiṣṭha
Agni (depicted in dawn-like radiance; possibly Agni as morning kindling)
Triṣṭubh (probable)
Yeh mantra Agni ke liye hai. Agni subah ki tarah chamakta hai aur charo taraf roshni failata hai. Woh Ushas ka pyara hai aur hamare mann mein achhe vichar jagata hai. Vasishtha kehte hain ki Agni bahut sundar hai aur sahi rasta pe chalta hai. Yeh hawan ke samagri le jata hai aur raat bhar havan mein hamare saath rehta hai. Agni humein dhan deta hai aur devataon ko hamare paas laya hai.

उषो न जारः पृथु पाजो अश्रेद्दविद्युतद्दीद्यच्छोशुचानः । वृषा हरिः शुचिरा भाति भासा धियो हिन्वान उशतीरजीगः ॥
Agni chamak raha hai jaise subah hone wali hai aur koi pyaar se intezaar kar raha ho. Uski chamak itni faili hai jaise aasman khul gaya ho. Woh apni aag se khud chamakta hai, jala raha hai. Yeh sunehari roshni saaf chamak rahi hai. Woh soch ko aage badha raha hai aur andar ki taqat ko jaga raha hai.

Agni chamak raha hai jaise subah ke waqt sona chamakta hai. Yagya ke liye sab taiyaari ho rahi hai, jaise log dil se kuch maang rahe hon. Agni janam-janam ki baatein jaanta hai. Woh bhagwan ka paigam le ke daud raha hai, bhagwan tak pahunchne ke liye sabse aage badh raha hai.

Bhagwan ki taraf jaane wali baatein aur soch sab Agni ke paas jaati hain. Log use se barkat maangte hain. Agni dekhne mein acha hai, uska chehra chamakta hai. Woh seedha chalta hai, hawa mein hawan ki cheezein le ke jaata hai. Woh insaanon ke safar ka rasta dikhata hai.

Agni, hamare liye Indra ko le kar aao, Vasus ke saath mil ke. Rudra ko bhi lao, Rudras ke saath, woh badi taqat wala hai. Aditi ko Adityas ke saath lao, woh sabki maa hai. Brihaspati ko bhi lao, rishiyon ke saath, woh sab accha deta hai.
