Mantra 3
Pavamāna Soma’s ancient, heaven-derived flow—pressed, purified, and offered—bringing Indra’s epiphany and prosperity to the sacrificer
अध यदिमे पवमान रोदसी इमा च विश्वा भुवनाभि मज्मना यूथे न निष्ठा वृषभो वि राजसि
adha yadime pavamāna rodasī imā ca viśvā bhuvanābhi majmanā yūthe na niṣṭhā vṛṣabho vi rājasi
adha yad ime pavamāna rodasī imā ca viśvā bhuvanābhi majmanā | yūthe na niṣṭhā vṛṣabho vi rājasi
Et lorsque ces flots, ô Soma purifiant (Pavamāna), par leur grandeur enveloppent les deux mondes et tous les êtres, alors tu resplendis, tel un taureau se tenant ferme au milieu du troupeau, d’un éclat manifeste.
adha | yat | ime | pavamāna | rodasī | imā | ca | viśvā | bhuvanā | abhi | majmanā | yūthe | na | niṣṭhāḥ | vṛṣabhaḥ | vi | rājasi
