The Rig Veda/Mandala 10/Hymn 187

1. To Agni send I forth my song, to him the Bull of all the folk:
     So may he bear us past our foes.
2. Who from the distance far away shines brilliantly across the wastes:
     So may he bear us past our foes.
3. The Bull with brightly-gleaming flame who utterly consumes the fiends
     So may he bear us past our foes.
4. Who looks on all existing things and comprehends them with his view:
     So may he bear us past our foes.
5. Resplendent Agni, who was born in farthest region of the air:
     So may he bear us past our foes.
