5.5.1

parjanyo vāva gautamāgniḥ \
tasya vāyur eva samit \
abhraṃ dhūmaḥ \
vidyud arciḥ \
aśanir aṅgārāḥ \
hrādunayo visphuliṅgāḥ \\505.1\

Parjanya is indeed the fire, O Gautama. Of that, the air is the fuel, the cloud is the smoke, the lightning is the flame, the thunderbolt is the embers, and the rumblings of thunder are the sparks.

Swami Swahananda 1956, The Chāndogya Upaniṣad

5.5.2

tasminn etasminn agnau devāḥ somaṃ rājānaṃ juhvati \
tasyā āhuter varṣaṃ saṃbhavati \\505.2\

Into this fire the deities offer the oblation of King Soma. Out of that oblation rain arises.

Swami Swahananda 1956, The Chāndogya Upaniṣad
