Sukta 2
इ॒न्द्रा॒ग्नी का॑म स॒रथं॒ हि भू॒त्वा नी॒चैः स॒पत्ना॒न् मम॑ पादयाथः । तेषां॑ प॒न्नाना॑मध॒मा तमां॒स्यग्ने॒ वास्तू॑न्यनु॒निर्द॑ह॒ त्वम्
indrāgnī́ kā́ma saráthaṃ hí bhūtvā nícaiḥ sapátnān máma pādayāthaḥ | téṣāṃ pannā́nām adhamā́ támāṃsy agne vā́stūny anu nírdaha tvám ||
Indra and Agni—O Kāma—become ye verily of one car, and thrust my rivals downward, make them fall. Of those thus fallen into the lowest darknesses, O Agni, burn out their dwellings, following after them.
ହେ କାମ! ଇନ୍ଦ୍ର ଓ ଅଗ୍ନି ଏକେ ରଥରେ (ସରଥଂ) ହୋଇ, ମୋର ପ୍ରତିଦ୍ୱନ୍ଦ୍ୱୀମାନଙ୍କୁ ତଳକୁ ଠେଲିଦିଅ, ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ପତିତ କର। ସେମାନେ ପତିତ ହୋଇ ସର୍ବାଧମ ଅନ୍ଧକାରମାନଙ୍କୁ ଯାଇଥିବାବେଳେ, ହେ ଅଗ୍ନି, ତୁମେ ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ଅନୁସରି ସେମାନଙ୍କର ବାସସ୍ଥାନଗୁଡ଼ିକୁ ଦହନ କର।
