य॒ज्ञैरिषूः॑ सं॒नम॑मानो अग्ने वा॒चा श॒ल्याँ अ॒शनि॑भिर्दिहा॒नः । ताभि॑र्विध्य॒ हृद॑ये यातु॒धाना॑न्प्रती॒चो बा॒हून्प्रति॑ भङ्घ्येषाम्
yajñairiṣūḥ saṃnamamāno agne vācā śalyām̐ aśanibhirdihānaḥ tābhirvidhya hṛdaye yātudhānānpratīco bāhūnprati bhaṅghyeṣām
With rites and songs, O Agni, rising, with mouths like thunderbolts blazing—let them be placed in the heart; let offerings go east and break forth with arms to scatter them.
Agni, do you, bending your arrows by means on your sacrifices and praise, and sharpening thejavelins with your splendours, pierce with them the yātudhānas to the heart, break their arms when raisedagainst you.
Bending thy shafts through sacrifices, Agni, whetting their points with song as if with whetstones, Pierce to the heart therewith the Yatudhanas, and break their arms uplifed to attack thee.
