अक्रन्ददग्नि सतनयन्निव दयौः कषामा रेरिहद वीरुधःसमञ्जन | सद्यो जज्ञानो वि हीमिद्धो अख्यदा रोदसीभानुना भात्यन्तः

IAST Romanisation

akrandadaghni stanayanniva dyauḥ kṣāmā rerihad vīrudhaḥsamañjan | sadyo jajñāno vi hīmiddho akhyadā rodasībhānunā bhātyantaḥ

English Translation (Griffith)

Agni roared out, like Dyaus what time he thunders: he licked the ground about the plants he flickered. At once, when born, he looked around enkindled, and lightened heaven and earth within with splendour.
