Wahai Agni, kepadamu aku menggerakkan persembahan yang kaya havis—bercahaya dengan sinar yang baik, pemberi kurnia, mengalir dengan ghee (ghṛta). Beredar menurut pradakṣiṇa, bersemangat dan luas kekuatannya, semoga himpunan para dewa ditegakkan; dengan kurnia dan bersama para Vasu, semoga yajña ini tersusun dan teguh.
