1.69.1

शु॒क्रः शु॑शु॒क्वाँ, उ॒षो न जा॒रः प॒प्रा स॑मी॒ची, दि॒वो न ज्योति॑: ||

BRIGHT, splendid, like Dawn's lover, he hath filled the two joined worlds as with the light of heaven. When born, with might thou hast encompassed them: Father of Gods, and yet their Son wast thou.

1.69.12

परि॒ प्रजा॑त॒:, क्रत्वा॑ बभूथ॒ भुवो॑ दे॒वानां॑, पि॒ता पु॒त्रः सन् ||

Agni, the Sage, the humble, who discerns like the cow's udder, the sweet taste of food, Like a bliss-giver to be drawn to men, sits gracious in the middle of the house.

1.69.3

वे॒धा अदृ॑प्तो, अ॒ग्निर्वि॑जा॒नन्नूध॒र्न गोनां॒, स्वाद्मा॑ पितू॒नाम् ||

Born in the dwelling like a lovely son, pleased, like a strong steed, he bears on the folk. What time the men and I, with heroes, call, may Agni then gain all through Godlike power.

जने॒ न शेव॑, आ॒हूर्य॒: सन् मध्ये॒ निष॑त्तो, र॒ण्वो दु॑रो॒णे ||

पु॒त्रो न जा॒तो, र॒ण्वो दु॑रो॒णे वा॒जी न प्री॒तो विशो॒ वि ता॑रीत् ||
