Translation

ข้าแต่ อัคนี (Agni) ข้าพเจ้าขับเคลื่อนเครื่องบูชานี้ไปสู่ท่าน—อุดมด้วยของถวาย ส่องสว่างด้วยรัศมีอันดี เป็นผู้ประทานทาน และไหลรินด้วยความหวานแห่งฆฤตะ (ghṛta) อันใสบริสุทธิ์. ดำเนินไปตามวิถีเวียนขวา ด้วยความเร่าร้อนและอำนาจอันกว้างใหญ่; ขอหมู่แห่งเทพภาวะทั้งหลายจงตั้งมั่น. ด้วยทานและด้วยเหล่าวาสุ (Vasus) ขอพิธีบูชาจงสำเร็จสมบูรณ์.
