Rig Veda
agna ojiṣṭham ā bhara dyumnam asmabhyam adhrigo pra no rāyā parīṇasā ratsi vājāya panthām
Bring us most mighty splendour thou, Agni, resistless on thy way. With overflowing store of wealth mark out for us a path to strength.

Ours art thou, wondrous Agni, by wisdom and bounteousness of power. The might of Asuras rests on thee, like Mitra worshipful in act.
tvaṃ no agna eṣāṃ gayam puṣṭiṃ ca vardhaya ye stomebhiḥ pra sūrayo naro maghāny ānaśuḥ
Agni, increase our means of life, increase the house and home of these, The men, the princes who have won great riches through our hymns of praise.
ye agne candra te giraḥ śumbhanty aśvarādhasaḥ śuṣmebhiḥ śuṣmiṇo naro divaś cid yeṣām bṛhat sukīrtir bodhati tmanā
Bright Agni, they who deck their songs for thee have horses as their meed. The men are mighty in their might, they whose high laud, as that of heaven, awakes thee of its own accord.

O Agni, those resplendent flames of thine go valorously forth, Like lightnings flashing round us, like a rattling car that seeks the spoil.
nū no agna ūtaye sabādhasaś ca rātaye asmākāsaś ca sūrayo viśvā āśās tarīṣaṇi
Now, Agni, come to succour us; let priests draw nigh to offer gifts; And let the patrons of our rites subdue all regions of the earth.
tvaṃ no agne aṅgira stuta stavāna ā bhara hotar vibhvāsahaṃ rayiṃ stotṛbhya stavase ca na utaidhi pṛtsu no vṛdhe
Bring to us, Agni, Angiras, lauded of old and lauded now, Invoker! wealth to quell the strong, that singers may extol thee. Be near us in fight for our success.
