HYMN 13 Agni

1

Exerting all our strength with thoughts of power we glorify in speech,
Agni, your dear familiar friend, the darling guest of every house:

2

Whom, served with sacrificial oil, like Mitra, men presenting gifts,
Glorify with their songs of praise

3

Much-lauded Jatavedas, him who sends oblations up to heaven,
Prepared in service of the Gods.
