HYMN 8 Agni

1

Let our songs come anear to him beauteous and bright with piercing flame,
Our sacrifices with our homage unto him much-lauded, very rich, for help:

To Agni Jatavedas, to the Son of Strength, that he may give us precious gifts,

3

Immortal, from of old Priest among mortal men, whose tones are sweetest in the house!
