1. Adorable in all our prayers, favour us, Agni, with thine aid.
What time the psalm is chanted forth!

2. Bring to us ever-conquering wealth, wealth, Agni, worthy of our choice,
Invincible in all our frays!

3. Grant us, O Agni, through thy grace wealth to support us evermore,
Thy favour so that we may live!
