< The Rig Veda < Mandala 1
1. AGNI, thy faithful servant I call upon thee with many a gift,
     As in the keeping of the great inciting God;
2. Thou who ne'er movest thee to aid the indolent, the godless man,
     Him who though wealthy never brings an offering.
3. Splendid, O Singer, is that man, mightiest of the great in heaven.
     Agni, may we be foremost, we thy worshippers.
