1 O God, show favour: great art Thou who to this pious man art come, to be present at his sacred gathering.

2 May He, the Immortal, Helper, bard not to be deceived among mankind,

Become the messenger of all.

3 Around the altar is He led, welcome Chief Priest at solemn rites,

Or as the Potar sits him down.

4 The Radiant One in fire at worship, and in the house as Lord thereof,

And as a Knower takes His seat.

5 Thou comest as the guide of folk who celebrate their worship,

And to offerings brought by men.

6 Thou servest as his messenger whose worship Thou lovest well,

To bear the mortal's gifts to heaven.

7 Accept our solemn rite; be pleased, Angiras, with our worship:

Give ear and listen to our call.

8 May Thine inviolable car, wherewith Thou guardest those who give,

Come near to us from every side.
