Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 3.2.2

sá rocayaj jánuṣā ródasī ubhé sá mātrór abhavat putrá ī́ḍyaḥ | havya-vā́ḷ agnír ajáraś canóhito dūḷábhō viśā́m atíthir vibhā́vasuḥ ||

Pelo próprio nascimento ele fez resplandecer os dois mundos; das duas Mães tornou-se o Filho digno de invocação. Agni, portador da oblação, sem velhice, posto em nossa alegria, difícil de alcançar e, contudo, hóspede dos povos — Vibhāvasu, resplandecente de múltiplas luzes.
