Mandal - 3 (Part - 3)

HYMN 24 Agni

1

AGNI, subdue opposing bands, and drive our enemies away.
Invincible, slay godless foes: give splendour to the worshipper.

2

Lit with libation, Agni, thou, deathless, who callest Gods to feast,
Accept our sacrifice with joy.

3

With splendour, Agni, Son of Strength, thou who art worshipped, wakeful One.
Seat thee on this my sacred grass.

4

With all thy fires, with all the Gods, Agni, exalt the songs we sing.
And living men in holy rites.

5

Grant, Agni, to the worshipper wealth rich in heroes, plenteous store,
Make thou us rich with many sons.
