10.4.1
प्र ते॑ यक्षि॒ प्र त॑ इयर्मि॒ मन्म॒ भुवो॒ यथा॒ वन्द्यो॑ नो॒ हवे॑षु ।
धन्व॑न्निव प्र॒पा अ॑सि॒ त्वम॑ग्न इय॒क्षवे॑ पू॒रवे॑ प्रत्न राजन् ॥
O Agni, I send my praise to you; may you be worthy of praise in our calls. You are like a water-station in the desert; O ancient king, so you are for the one who wishes to sacrifice and for Pūru.
10.4.2
यं त्वा॒ जना॑सो अ॒भि सं॒चर॑न्ति॒ गाव॑ उ॒ष्णमि॑व व्र॒जं य॑विष्ठ ।
दू॒तो दे॒वाना॑मसि॒ मर्त्या॑नाम॒न्तर्म॒हांश्च॑रसि रोच॒नेन॑ ॥
O youngest one, people surround you as cows go toward a warm cowpen; you are the messenger of the gods, among mortals; great, you move with your brilliance.
10.4.3
शिशुं॒ न त्वा॒ जेन्यं॑ व॒र्धय॑न्ती मा॒ता बि॑भर्ति सचन॒स्यमा॑ना ।
धनो॒रधि॑ प्र॒वता॑ यासि॒ हर्य॒ञ्जिगी॑षसे प॒शुरि॒वाव॑सृष्टः ॥
As a mother bears her child, nourishing it after its birth, so she bears you; you go with the flow like an arrow from a bow; tawny one, you wish to conquer, like a beast let loose.
10.4.4
मू॒रा अ॑मूर॒ न व॒यं चि॑कित्वो महि॒त्वम॑ग्ने॒ त्वम॒ङ्ग वि॑त्से ।
शये॑ व॒व्रिश्चर॑ति जि॒ह्वया॒दन्रे॑रि॒ह्यते॑ युव॒तिं वि॒श्पतिः॒ सन् ॥
We are like the mute, O ignorant one; O wise Agni, you know your greatness. Like a wolf he moves, eating with his tongue; as lord of the clan he licks the young woman.
10.4.5
कूचि॑ज्जायते॒ सन॑यासु॒ नव्यो॒ वने॑ तस्थौ पलि॒तो धू॒मके॑तुः ।
अ॒स्ना॒तापो॑ वृष॒भो न प्र वे॑ति॒ सचे॑तसो॒ यं प्र॒णय॑न्त॒ मर्ताः॑ ॥
Somewhere a new one is born in rich places; in the forest he stood, gray, smoke-bannered, unbathed in the waters; like a bull he goes far. He whom like-minded mortals lead forward.
10.4.6
त॒नू॒त्यजे॑व॒ तस्क॑रा वन॒र्गू र॑श॒नाभि॑र्द॒शभि॑र॒भ्य॑धीताम् ।
इ॒यं ते॑ अग्ने॒ नव्य॑सी मनी॒षा यु॒क्ष्वा रथं॒ न शु॒चय॑द्भि॒रङ्गैः॑ ॥
Those two, like two thieves cutting the thongs and roaming the forest, bound all around with ten reins; O Agni, here is a new thought for you; yoke the chariot as with horses of shining limbs.
10.4.7
ब्रह्म॑ च ते जातवेदो॒ नम॑श्चे॒यं च॒ गीः सद॒मिद्वर्ध॑नी भूत् ।
रक्षा॑ णो अग्ने॒ तन॑यानि तो॒का रक्षो॒त न॑स्त॒न्वो॑ अप्र॑युच्छन् ॥
O Agni, knower of all beings, may this sacred prayer, this homage and this song to you always bring increase. O Agni, protect our sons and grandsons; protect our bodies without interruption.
