Mantra 3
Agni as Jātavedas—ritual guide and luminous power who secures faultless sacrifice and protection in the sadas
इदं त एकं पर ऊ त एकं तृतीयेन ज्योतिषा सं विशस्व संवेशनस्तन्वे3 चारुरेधि प्रियो देवानां परमे जनित्रे
idaṃ ta ekaṃ para ū ta ekaṃ tṛtīyena jyotiṣā saṃ viśasva saṃveśanastanve3 cāruredhi priyo devānāṃ parame janitre
idaṃ ta ekaṃ para ū ta ekaṃ1 tṛtīyena jyotiṣā saṃ viśasva2 saṃveśanas tanve cārur edhi3 priyo devānāṃ parame janitre
ഇത് നിന്റെ ഒരു രൂപം; അതും നിന്റെ ഒരു രൂപം; മൂന്നാം ജ്യോതിസ്സോടെ നീ ഏകത്വത്തിൽ പ്രവേശിക്ക. സംവേശന (വിശ്രമം) നൽകുന്നവനായി, നിന്റെ തനുവിൽ കൃപാലുവും മനോഹരനും ആക; ദേവന്മാർക്ക് പ്രിയനായിരിക്ക—പരമ ജനിത്രത്തിൽ.
