Rig-Veda Book 1: HYMN LXXVIII. Agni

1. O JĀTAVEDAS, keen and swift, we Gotamas with sacred song exalt thee for thy glories' sake. 2 Thee, as thou art, desiring wealth Gotama worships with his song: We laud thee for thy glories' sake. 3 As such, like Aṅgiras we call on thee best winner of the spoil: We laud thee for thy glories' sake. 4 Thee, best of Vṛtra-slayers, thee who shakest off our Dasyu foes: We laud thee for thy glories' sake. 5 A pleasant song to Agni we, sons of Rahūgaṅa, have sung: We laud thee for thy glories' sake.
