Mantra 10
Agni kindled with radiant flames as the guardian of ṛta (right-ordered sacrifice) and giver of strengthening wealth
यो विश्वा दयते वसु होता मन्द्रो जनानाम् मधोर्न पात्रा प्रथमान्यस्मै प्र स्तोमा यन्त्वग्नये
yo viśvā dayate vasu hotā mandro janānām madhorna pātrā prathamānyasmai pra stomā yantvagnaye
yo viśvā dāyate vasu hotā mandro janānāṃ madhor na pātrā prathamāny asmai pra stomā yantv agnaye
К Агни — кто, радостный Хотар людей, раздаёт всякое богатство, и кому первейшие возлияния, как сосуды сладкого Сомы, приносятся, — да устремятся наши славословия, к Агни.
