YajurVeda (Swami Satyaprakash Saraswati) - English
Translation
You are the fire embodied and the source of speech. I take you up for satisfaction of Nature's bounties. (1) You are a big cloud nourisher of vegetation. (2) Now prepare oblation for Nature's bounties. (3) Prepare it carefully. О offerer of oblations, come; O offerer of oblations, come here. (4)
Note
Agneh tanuh, body of the fire, the fire embodied. Visarjanam, विसृज् to release; visarjanam is the release. Releaser or the source of the speech is meant here. Devavitaye, वीतिः तर्पणम्i. e. enjoyment or satisfaction. Devas are the bounties of Nature such as the sun, air, the moon, clouds etc. Grava, is the stone, generally used for crushing Soma stalks or for husking rice. Sometimes the word is used in dual number as gravanau, two stones, i. e. mortar and pestle. According to Uvata a wooden pestle is meant by grava vanaspatyah, But according to Yaska, grava is one of the names of cloud. (Nigh I. 10). So we have translated grava as cloud, beneficial for vegetation. Havih, whatever is offered to the sacrificial fire is havih, i. e. the oblation or the offering, संस्कृत सुगन्ध्यादियुक्त द्रव्यम् (Dayananda). In a wider sense of the sacrifice, whatever a seeker gives up for others is havih. Samisva, दुःखनिवृत्तये सुखसम्पादनार्थं कुरुथ्व, i. e. prepare it for removing distress and bringing happiness (Dayananda). Haviskrt, one who offers the oblations, as well as he,who prepares them.
