Hymns to the Mystic Fire

Sukta 12

7.12.1

अग॑न्म म॒हा नम॑सा॒ यवि॑ष्ठं॒ यो दी॒दाय॒ समि॑द्धः॒ स्वे दु॑रो॒णे ।

चि॒त्रभा॑नुं॒ रोद॑सी अं॒तरु॒र्वी स्वा॑हुतं वि॒श्वतः॑ प्र॒त्यंचं॑ ॥

áganma mahā́ námasā yáviṣṭham yáḥ dīdā́ya sám-iddhaḥ své duroṇé ǀ

citrá-bhānum ródasī␣íti antáḥ urvī́␣íti sú-āhutam viśvátaḥ pratyáñcam ǁ

We have come with a great prostration of surrender to the ever-young Fire who has shone out blazing in his own home rich of lustre between the wide firmaments and filled with the offerings cast in him he moves facing every side.

7.12.2

स म॒ह्ना विश्वा॑ दुरि॒तानि॑ सा॒ह्वान॒ग्निः ष्ट॑वे॒ दम॒ आ जा॒तवे॑दाः ।

स नो॑ रक्षिषद्दुरि॒ताद॑व॒द्याद॒स्मान्गृ॑ण॒त उ॒त नो॑ म॒घोनः॑ ॥

sáḥ mahnā́ víśvā duḥ-itā́ni sahvā́n agníḥ stave dáme ā́ jātá-vedāḥ ǀ

sáḥ naḥ rakṣiṣat duḥ-itā́t avadyā́t asmā́n gṛṇatáḥ utá naḥ maghónaḥ ǁ

He overcomes all evils by his mights: the Fire is affirmed by the lauds in the home, the knower of all things born; may he guard us from stumbling and from blame, us when we speak the words and us when we are lords of the plenty.

7.12.3

त्वं वरु॑ण उ॒त मि॒त्रो अ॑ग्ने॒ त्वां व॑र्धंति म॒तिभि॒र्वसि॑ष्ठाः ।

त्वे वसु॑ सुषण॒नानि॑ संतु यू॒यं पा॑त स्व॒स्तिभिः॒ सदा॑ नः ॥

tvám váruṇaḥ utá mitráḥ agne tvā́m vardhanti matí-bhiḥ vásiṣṭhāḥ ǀ

tvé␣íti vásu su-sananā́ni santu yūyám pāta svastí-bhiḥ sádā naḥ ǁ

Thou art Varuna and thou art Mitra, O Fire, thee the Vasishthas make to grow by their thoughts, in thee may the riches be easily won. Do you always guard us with all kinds of weal.
