1.144.1
एति॒ प्र होता॑ व्र॒तम॑स्य मा॒ययो॒र्ध्वां दधा॑नः॒ शुचि॑पेशसं॒ धिय॑म् ।
अ॒भि स्रुचः॑ क्रमते दक्षिणा॒वृतो॒ या अ॑स्य॒ धाम॑ प्रथ॒मं ह॒ निंस॑ते ॥
The priest of this sacrifice, Agni, advances by his craft, holding aloft the prayer of bright form. He strides toward the ghee-ladles encircled by gifts; they seize his first dwelling.
1.144.2
अ॒भीमृ॒तस्य॑ दो॒हना॑ अनूषत॒ योनौ॑ दे॒वस्य॒ सद॑ने॒ परी॑वृताः ।
अ॒पामु॒पस्थे॒ विभृ॑तो॒ यदाव॑स॒दध॑ स्व॒धा अ॑धय॒द्याभि॒रीय॑ते ॥
The milk-giving streams of cosmic order praised him, in the seat of the god, encircled. When, borne in the lap of the waters, he dwelt, he established his powers, by which he is invoked.
1.144.3
युयू॑षतः॒ सव॑यसा॒ तदिद्वपुः॑ समा॒नमर्थं॑ वि॒तरि॑त्रता मि॒थः ।
आदीं॒ भगो॒ न हव्यः॒ सम॒स्म~दा वोळ्हु॒र्न र॒श्मीन्त्सम॑यंस्त॒ सार॑थिः ॥
The two of the same age, eager to join each other, strive together in one form toward one goal. Then, like Bhaga worthy of invocation, he comes to us; as a charioteer holds the reins, so the driver gathered his ray-reins together.
1.144.4
यमी॒ं द्वा सव॑यसा सप॒र्यतः॑ समा॒ने योना॑ मिथु॒ना समो॑कसा ।
दिवा॒ न नक्तं॑ पलि॒तो युवा॑जनि पु॒रू चर॑न्न॒जरो॒ मानु॑षा यु॒गा ॥
Him the two, servants of like age, serve together in one place, one dwelling, as a pair. Like day and like night, though grey-haired he is born young; wandering in many ways, the ageless one moves through the human ages.
1.144.5
तमी॑ं हिन्वन्ति धी॒तयो॒ दश॒ व्रिशो॑ दे॒वं मर्ता॑स ऊ॒तये॑ हवामहे ।
धनो॒रधि॑ प्र॒वत॒ आ स ऋ॑ण्वति अभि॒व्रज॑द्भिर्व॒युना॒ नवा॑धित ॥
Him the prayers impel, the ten showers of rain; for protection mortals call upon the god. From the bow, from the slope, indeed he hurls forth; with those who move forward, bird-like and swift, new, he was set in place.
1.144.6
त्वं ह्य॑ग्ने दि॒व्यस्य॒ राज॑सि॒ त्वं पार्थि॑वस्य पशु॒पा इ॑व॒ त्मना॑ ।
एनी॑ त ए॒ते बृ॑ह॒ती अ॑भि॒श्रिया॑ हिर॒ण्ययी॒ वक्व॑री ब॒र्हिरा॑शाते ॥
You, Agni, indeed rule the heavenly realm; and by your own form, as lord of cattle, you rule the earthly. Your two great, golden, sweet-voiced companions sit upon the sacred grass, adorned with the splendor of light.
1.144.7
अग्ने॑ जु॒षस्व॒ प्रति॑ हर्य॒ तद्वचो॒ मन्द्र॒ स्वधा॑व॒ ऋत॑जात॒ सुक्र॑तो ।
यो वि॒श्वतः॑ प्र॒त्यङ्ङसि॑ दर्श॒तो र॒ण्वः संदृ॑ष्टौ पितु॒माँ इ॑व॒ क्षयः॑ ॥
O Agni, accept this word and bring it near with joy. O delightful one, possessor of sustenance, born of cosmic order, wise and skillful, you who face every side and appear in clear view, are pleasing like a protected home that stands plainly in sight.
