1.36.1
प्र वो॑ य॒ह्वं पु॑रू॒णां वि॒शां दे॑वय॒तीना॑म् ।
अ॒ग्निं सू॒क्तेभि॒र्वचो॑भिरीमहे॒ यं सी॒मिद॒न्य ईळ॑ते ॥
For you, who seek the gods among the many clans, we call upon the mighty Agni with well-made hymns and words; him others too praise.
1.36.2
जना॑सो अ॒ग्निं द॑धिरे सहो॒वृधं॑ ह॒विष्म॑न्तो विधेम ते ।
स त्वं नो॑ अ॒द्य सु॒मना॑ इ॒हावि॒ता भवा॒ वाजे॑षु सन्त्य ॥
O people, you who have established Agni, the increaser of victory, may we, bearing oblations, worship you. Be our protector here today with a kindly mind, O possessor of wealth, and guard us in the battles.
1.36.3
प्र त्वा॑ दू॒तं वृ॑णीमहे॒ होता॑रं वि॒श्ववे॑दसम् ।
म॒हस्ते॑ स॒तो वि च॑रन्त्य॒र्चयो॑ दि॒वि स्पृ॑शन्ति भा॒नवः॑ ॥
We choose you as messenger, invoking priest, and all-knowing one. By the being of your greatness your flames spread out; their rays touch the heavens.
1.36.4
दे॒वास॑स्त्वा॒ वरु॑णो मि॒त्रो अ॑र्य॒मा सं दू॒तं प्र॒त्नमि॑न्धते ।
विश्वं॒ सो अ॑ग्ने जयति॒ त्वया॒ धनं॒ यस्ते॑ द॒दाश॒ मर्त्यः॑ ॥
O Agni, the gods Varuṇa, Mitra and Aryaman kindle you together, the ancient messenger. The mortal who offers to you wins all wealth through you.
1.36.5
म॒न्द्रो होता॑ गृ॒हप॑ति॒रग्ने॑ दू॒तो वि॒शाम॑सि ।
त्वे विश्वा॒ संग॑तानि व्र॒ता ध्रु॒वा यानि॑ दे॒वा अकृ॑ण्वत ॥
Joyful Hotṛ, lord of the house, O Agni, you are the messenger of the peoples. In you are all the assemblies and the firm sacred laws that the gods established.
1.36.6
त्वे इद॑ग्ने सु॒भगे॑ यविष्ठ्य॒ विश्व॒मा हू॑यते ह॒विः ।
स त्वं नो॑ अ॒द्य सु॒मना॑ उ॒ताप॒रं यक्षि॑ दे॒वान्त्सु॒वीर्या॑ ॥
In you indeed, O Agni, auspicious and youngest, all oblation is invoked. Be kindly-minded toward us today, and further worship the gods with good heroism and good sons.
1.36.7
तं घे॑मि॒त्था न॑म॒स्विन॒ उप॑ स्व॒राज॑मासते ।
होत्रा॑भिर॒ग्निं मनु॑षः॒ समि॑न्धते तिति॒र्वांसो॒ अति॒ स्रिधः॑ ॥
Reverent people sit thus near that self-ruling Agni. With invocations the people kindle Agni well, and they cross beyond the hostile obstacles.
1.36.8
घ्नन्तो॑ वृ॒त्रम॑तर॒न्रोद॑सी अ॒प उ॒रु क्षया॑य चक्रिरे ।
भुव॒त्कण्वे॒ वृषा॑ द्यु॒म्न्याहु॑तः॒ क्रन्द॒दश्वो॒ गवि॑ष्टिषु ॥
Slaying Vrtra, they crossed beyond the two worlds and the waters, and made a wide dwelling. Among the Kanvas the mighty, brilliant Agni was invoked and became; like a horse he neighs among the cow-herds.
1.36.9
सं सी॑दस्व म॒हाँ अ॑सि॒ शोच॑स्व देव॒वीत॑मः ।
वि धू॒मम॑ग्ने अरु॒षं मि॑येध्य सृ॒ज प्र॑शस्त दर्श॒तम् ॥
Settle well, O Agni; you are great. Shine forth, most favored by the gods. Separate the smoke, O sacred one; send forth the ruddy fire, O praised one.
1.36.10
यं त्वा॑ दे॒वासो॒ मन॑वे द॒धुरि॒ह यजि॑ष्ठं हव्यवाहन ।
यं कण्वो॒ मेध्या॑तिथिर्धन॒स्पृतं॒ यं वृषा॒ यमु॑पस्तु॒तः ॥
O bearer of oblations, the gods placed you here for Manu, most worshipful; the Kanva and Medhyatithi established you as wealth-bestower, the mighty one praised.
1.36.11
यम॒ग्निं मेध्या॑तिथिः॒ कण्व॑ ई॒ध ऋ॒तादधि॑ ।
तस्य॒ प्रेषो॑ दीदियु॒स्तमि॒मा ऋच॒स्तम॒ग्निं व॑र्धयामसि ॥
The Agni that Medhyatithi and Kanva kindled from the cosmic order, from him his impulses shone forth. These verses are his; we strengthen that Agni.
1.36.12
रा॒यस्पू॑र्धि स्वधा॒वोऽस्ति॒ हि तेऽग्ने॑ दे॒वेष्वाप्य॑म् ।
त्वं वाज॑स्य॒ श्रुत्य॑स्य राजसि॒ स नो॑ मृळ म॒हाँ अ॑सि ॥
O self-sustaining one, fill us with wealth; for you have a share among the gods, O Agni. You rule over strength and the spoils of battle. You, the great one, be gracious to us.
1.36.13
ऊ॒र्ध्व ऊ॒ षु ण॑ ऊ॒तये॒ तिष्ठा॑ दे॒वो न स॑वि॒ता ।
ऊ॒र्ध्वो वाज॑स्य॒ सनि॑ता॒ यद॒ञ्जिभि॑र्वा॒घद्भि॑र्वि॒ह्वया॑महे ॥
O upright Agni, stand here for our protection like the god Savitar. O giver of strength and food, upright one, we call you with anointed, strengthening offerings.
1.36.14
ऊ॒र्ध्वो नः॑ पा॒ह्यंह॑सो॒ नि के॒तुना॒ विश्वं॒ सम॒त्रिणं॑ दह ।
कृ॒धी न॑ ऊ॒र्ध्वाञ्च॒रथा॑य जी॒वसे॑ वि॒दा दे॒वेषु॑ नो॒ दुवः॑ ॥
O upright Agni, protect us from guilt. With your flame burn away completely all the evil-doers and enemies. Raise us up so that we may walk and live; hear our prayer among the gods.
1.36.15
पा॒हि नो॑ अग्ने र॒क्षसः॑ पा॒हि धू॒र्तेररा॑व्णः ।
पा॒हि रीष॑त उ॒त वा॒ जिघां॑सतो॒ बृह॑द्भानो॒ यवि॑ष्ठ्य ॥
O Agni, protect us from the demon; protect us from the deceiver and from the one who gives nothing. Protect us from the harmer, and from the one who would slay us. O brilliant-flamed, O youngest one!
1.36.16
घ॒नेव॒ विष्व॒ग्वि ज॒ह्यरा॑व्ण॒स्तपु॑र्जम्भ॒ यो अ॑स्म॒ध्रुक् ।
यो मर्त्यः॒ शिशी॑ते॒ अत्य॒क्तुभि॒र्मा नः॒ स रि॒पुरी॑शत ॥
Like a cloud, strike away on all sides the ones who give nothing, O hot-jawed Agni. Let the mortal who is hostile to us and lies down by night not rule over us.
1.36.17
अ॒ग्निर्व॑व्ने सु॒वीर्य॑म॒ग्निः कण्वा॑य॒ सौभ॑गम् ।
अ॒ग्निः प्राव॑न्मि॒त्रोत मेध्या॑तिथिम॒ग्निः सा॒ता उ॑पस्तु॒तम् ॥
Agni has chosen good heroism; Agni granted good fortune to Kanva. Agni protected the two friends and Medhyatithi as well; Agni, when praised, helps in the winning.

अ॒ग्निना॑ तु॒र्वशं॒ यदुं॑ परा॒वत॑ उ॒ग्रादे॑वं हवामहे ।
अ॒ग्निर्न॑य॒न्नव॑वास्त्वं बृ॒हद्र॑थं तु॒र्वीतिं॒ दस्य॑वे॒ सहः॑ ॥
By Agni we call from afar Turvasha and Yadu, and Ugradeva. Agni led Navavastu, Brihadratha, and Turviti with might against the enemy.
1.36.19
नि त्वाम॑ग्ने॒ मनु॑र्दधे॒ ज्योति॒र्जना॑य॒ शश्व॑ते ।
दी॒देथ॒ कण्व॑ ऋ॒तजा॑त उक्षि॒तो यं न॑म॒स्यन्ति॑ कृ॒ष्टयः॑ ॥
O Agni, Manu set you down as light for the ever-present people. You shine in Kaṇva, born of truth, anointed; the clans bow down to you.
1.36.20
त्वे॒षासो॑ अ॒ग्नेरम॑वन्तो अ॒र्चयो॑ भी॒मासो॒ न प्रती॑तये ।
र॒क्ष॒स्विनः॒ सद॒मिद्या॑तु॒माव॑तो॒ विश्वं॒ सम॒त्रिणं॑ दह ॥
The flames of Agni blaze, mighty and fearsome, as if standing to confront; always, and wholly, burn the sorcerers and demons, burn the devouring Atri.
