क्रत्वा हि द्रोणे अज्यसेऽग्ने वाजी न कृत्व्यः । परिज्मेव स्वधा गयोऽत्यो न ह्वार्यः शिशुः ॥
Transliteration
kratvā́ hi dróṇe ajyase’gne vājī́ na kṛtvyàḥ | paríjmāiva svadhā́ gáyo’tyó na hvā́ryaḥ śíśuḥ ||
Translation
اے اگنی، اپنی شعوری طاقت سے تو پیالے میں مسح ہوا ہے، فتح پانے والے کی طرح طاقت میں دولت مند۔ خود قائم، گھوڑے کی طرح چکر لگاتا ہوا، تو حیاتی توانائی ہے، تیز گھوڑے کی طرح، شعلے کے بچے کی طرح جس پر حملہ کرنا مشکل ہے۔
