उद॑ग्ने तिष्ठ॒ प्रत्या त॑नुष्व॒ न्यमित्राँ॑२ ओषतात्तिग्महेते । यो नो॒ अरा॑तिᳪ समिधान च॒क्रे नी॒चा तं ध॑क्ष्यत॒सं न शुष्क॑म्

Transliteration

úd agne tiṣṭha prátyā́ tanuṣva ny àmítrāṃ̐2 oṣatā́ttigmahete | yó no arā́tiṃ samidhāná cakré nīcā́ taṃ dhakṣyathā́saṃ ná śúṣkam

Translation

ਹੇ ਅਗਨੀ, ਉੱਠ ਖੜਾ ਹੋ; ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਵਿਰੁੱਧ ਆਪਣਾ ਰੂਪ ਫੈਲਾ; ਤਿੱਖੇ ਹਥਿਆਰ ਵਾਲੇ, ਵੈਰੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਢਾਹ ਦੇ। ਜਦ ਤੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਜ੍ਵਲਿਤ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈਂ, ਜੋ ਸਾਡੇ ਵਿਰੁੱਧ ਅਰਾਤਿ (ਦੁਸ਼ਮਨੀ) ਕਰੇ—ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਨੀਵਾਂ ਕਰ ਕੇ ਤੂੰ ਸਾੜ ਦੇਂ, ਜਿਵੇਂ ਸੁੱਕੀ ਲੱਕੜ ਸਾੜੀ ਜਾਂਦੀ ਹੈ।
