RIGVEDA - BOOK 10 -HYMN CLVI. Agni.
1. LET songs of ours speed Agni forth like a fleet courser in the race, And we will win each prize through him. 2 Agni the dart whereby we gain kine for ourselves with help from thee,— That send us for the gain of wealth. 3 O Agni, bring us wealth secure, vast wealth in horses and in kine: Oil thou the socket, turn the wheel. 4 O Agni, thou hast made the Sun, Eternal Star, to mount the sky, Bestowing light on living men. 5 Thou, Agni, art the people's light, best, dearest, seated in thy shrine: Watch for the singer, give him life.
Bibliography: Rigveda, translated by Ralph Thomas Hotchkin Griffith, (1896)
