उपास्महे अग्निं पावकं ऋतस्य पथिभिर्धिया
तन्नो देवा अनुमदन्तु यज्ञं सुवीर्यम्
Upasmahe Agnim Pavakam Ritasya Pathibhirdhiya
Tanno Deva Anumadantu Yajnam Suviryam
With illumined thought along the paths of Cosmic Order we worship Agni, radiant purifier of heart and mind;
May the Gods rejoice in our sacrifice and grant us heroic spiritual strength.
