echo/print variable question

Code:
while read filer ; do echo $filer $1 $2; ssh $filer vfiler status -r | awk '/running/{host=$1}/Path:/{path=$2;print host,path}'; done < filers.list

this will print

Code:
node1
vfiler0 /
vfiler2 /vol/vfiler2_vol0
vfilert /vol/vfiler_vol
vfilert /vol/virt_vol

where node1 = $filer.
however how do i get $filer printed on each line, before {host=$1} ?
