Mandal - 5 (Part - 5)

HYMN 24 Agni

1

O AGNI, be our nearest Friend, be thou a kind deliverer and a gracious Friend.

2

Excellent Agni, come thou nigh to us, and give us wealth most splendidly renowned.

3

So hear us, listen to this call of ours, and keep us far from every sinful man.

4

To thee then, O Most Bright, O Radiant God, we come with prayer for happiness for our friends.
