अग्निर्हि वाजिनं विशे ददाति विश्वचर्षणिः । अग्नी राये स्वाभुवं स प्रीतो याति वार्यमिषं स्तोतृभ्य आ भर ॥
Transliteration
agnír hí vājíṇaṃ viśé dádāti viśvácarṣaṇiḥ | agnī rāyé svā́bhuvaṃ sá prītó yāti vā́ryam íṣaṃ stotṛ́bhya ā́ bhara ||
Translation
Ибо Агни, вседержащая Сила, дарует народу ва́джа — полноту действенной мощи. Агни — самосущий в своём становлении; довольный, он идёт к ра́йи — полноте бытия — и приносит певцам избранный порыв питания.
