Mantra 4
Soma Pavamāna’s self-purification and enthronement in ṛta through the waters and the filter (pavitra), yielding wealth and ritual power
प्र सोम देववीतये सिन्धुर्न पिप्ये अर्णसा अंशोः पयसा मदिरो न जागृविरच्छा कोशं मधुश्चुतम्
pra soma devavītaye sindhurna pipye arṇasā aṃśoḥ payasā madiro na jāgṛviracchā kośaṃ madhuścutam

হে সোম, দেব-আনয়নের জন্য প্রবাহিত হও; সিন্ধু (নদী) যেমন, তেমনি তুমি প্লাবন-জলে স্ফীত হও; অংশু (সোমদণ্ড) এর পয়স্ (দুগ্ধ/রস) মিশ্রিত, মদির (উল্লাসদায়ক) ও জাগ্রত (সতর্ক) হয়ে, মধু-ঝরা কোষ (পাত্র) অভিমুখে যাও।

{ "prastava": "(Prelude often establishes forward motion with stobha and extended ‘pra’ entry.)", "udgitha": "pra soma devavītaye sindhur na pipye arṇasā…", "pratihara": "(Response may echo devavītaye/sindhuḥ to reinforce deity-inviting function.)", "upadrava": "…aṃśoḥ payasā madiraḥ na jāgṛviḥ…", "nidhana": "…acchā kośaṃ madhuścutam", "structure_notes": "Semantic climax aligns with nidhana: ‘toward the honey-dripping vessel’ invites a sweet, collective cadence.", "singer_assignments": "Standard five-part distribution; nidhana by all to ‘seal’ the sweetness in the ritual space." }
{ "gloss_summary": "devavītaye: for bringing/winning the gods to the sacrifice. Soma swells like a river with flood. payasā indicates prescribed admixture/nourishment (often glossed as mixture enhancing Soma). kośaṃ madhuścutam: the receiving vessel dripping sweetness.", "ritual_interpretation": "Chanted as Soma is directed toward the vessel for offering; emphasizes deity-attraction and proper preparation through admixture and flow.", "theological_insight": "Soma is both means and magnet: by his prepared flow the gods are drawn, and sweetness (madhu) becomes the rite’s fruition.", "etymology_highlights": "devavīti from deva + vīti (winning/attainment/bringing); sindhu as great flowing mass; madhuścut as ‘honey-dripping’ (√scut/√cyut, to drip)." }
