Mantra 2
Soma Pavamāna’s purifying flow as a cosmic-ritual ascent toward the Sun and the gods
अचोदसो नो धन्वन्त्विन्दवः प्र स्वानासो बृहद्देवेषु हरयः वि चिदश्नाना इषयो अरातयो ऽर्यो नः सन्तु सनिषन्तु नो धियः
acodaso no dhanvantvindavaḥ pra svānāso bṛhaddeveṣu harayaḥ vi cidaśnānā iṣayo arātayo 'ryo naḥ santu saniṣantu no dhiyaḥ
acodaso1 no dhanvantv indavaḥ2 pra svānāso3 bṛhad deveṣu harayaḥ | vi1 cid aśnānā iṣayo2 arātayo 'ryo3 naḥ santu | saniṣantu1 no dhiyaḥ2 ||
Sans être poussées, que pour nous courent les gouttes de Soma, ô Dhanvantvindu ; résonnant dans leur cours, les flots fauves s’avancent vers la grande assemblée des dieux. Qu’ils soient pour nous de nobles dispensateurs ; qu’ils obtiennent l’accomplissement de nos prières et affermissent nos pensées.

Pavamāna-sāman (generic; specific tune not stated in input)
{ "prastava": "Gentle stobha prelude to establish unforced legato.", "udgitha": "Main phrase ‘acodaso no dhanvantv indavaḥ…’ with smooth, continuous tone.", "pratihara": "Answer after ‘harayaḥ’ marking transition to petition.", "upadrava": "Petition section ‘vi cid aśnānā… aryo naḥ santu’ with uplifted emphasis on ‘āryaḥ’.", "nidhana": "Final collective cadence ‘saniṣantu no dhiyaḥ’—sealed prayer for fulfilled insight.", "structure_notes": "Keep ‘acodasaḥ’ audibly ‘unimpelled’: avoid percussive consonant stress; let the line glide.", "singer_assignments": "Standard five-part roles; nidhana by all to embody communal intention (dhiyaḥ)." }
{ "gloss_summary": "‘Acodasaḥ’—Soma runs by its own nature once pressed and set in rite; ‘svānāsaḥ’—sounding as it flows; tawny streams go to the great company of gods; may they be noble bestowers and procure (win) our dhiyas (prayers/intentions).", "ritual_interpretation": "Describes Soma’s natural movement through purification and toward offering; prayer for successful completion of sacrificial intentions and inspired thought for priests/yajamāna.", "theological_insight": "Rightly prepared Soma becomes self-propelling grace; its gift is not only exhilaration but dhī—illumined intelligence aligned with ṛta.", "etymology_highlights": "acodasaḥ = a-codita (not impelled); svāna = √svan (to sound); saniṣantu = sam-√nī/√san (to win/procure); dhī = prajñā/kratu-buddhi in ritual sense." }
