HYMN 1 Agni

1

Agni,well kindled bring the Gods for him who offers holy gifts;
And worship them, pure Hotar-priest!

O Sage, Tanunapat, present our sacrifice to Gods to-day,
Sweet to the taste, that they may help!

3

Dear Narasansa, sweet of tongue, presenter of oblations, I
Invoke to this our sacrifice.

4

Agni, on thy most easy car, entreated, hither bring the Gods!
Manus-appointed Priest art thou.
