Like fire for comfort, with our own holy chant

for the internal yajna of our spiritual purification and

your joy, we fellow yajakas, choose you, Agni, high

priest of cosmic yajna, all pervasive purifier by the white

heat of his divine radiance. Verily the lord is great and

glorious for you. (Rg. 10-21-1)

O dawn, lady of morning light brilliant with

splendour, arouse us and enlighten us today for the

achievement of grandeur, wealth and excellence of life

as you have been the giver of enlightenment and

generosity ever before, O majesty of renown, symbol

of life's extension, nobly born, commander of the

nation's power, achievement and love of noble truth.

(Rg. 5-79-1)

(Swami Dayananda interprets this mantra as an

address to the lady of the house.)
