ಹೇ ಇಂದ್ರ, ನಾವು ಸುಷ್ವಾಣರು—ಯಥಾವಿಧಿ ಸೋಮವನ್ನು ಪಿಷಿದು ಹೊರತಂದವರು—ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ಸ್ತುತಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ; ನಾವು, ಸಂಪಾದನೆ ಬಯಸುವವರು, ಮಹಾಪರಾಕ್ರಮಿಯಾದ ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ಬಲಪ್ರಾಪ್ತಿಗಾಗಿ ಸ್ತವಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ. ನಮಗೆ ಸುವಿತ (ಕಲ್ಯಾಣ)ವನ್ನು ತಂದುಕೊಡು; ಅದರ ಮೂಲಕ ನಿನ್ನ ನೆರವಿನಿಂದ ನಾವು ಸಂತಾನದೊಡನೆ ಮತ್ತು ನಮ್ಮದೇ ಆತ್ಮಬಲದಿಂದ ಶತ್ರುಗಳನ್ನು ಜಯಿಸೋಣ.

{ "prastava": null, "udgitha": null, "pratihara": null, "upadrava": null, "nidhana": null, "structure_notes": "In Kauthuma practice, the ṛk is melodically segmented: deity-name and key imperatives often anchor udgītha/upadrava; concluding protection/victory phrase is nidhana-resolved. Exact stobha insertions require the Gāna text for this sāman.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ leads prastāva; Udgātṛ carries udgītha and upadrava; Pratihartṛ answers with pratihāra; all join in nidhana closure." }
{ "gloss_summary": "suṣvāṇāsaḥ: having well-pressed Soma; stumasi: we sing praises; vāja: fruit as food/strength; suvita: auspicious course/welfare (good movement of the rite); tanā tmanā: with sons and with body; tvotāḥ: protected by you.", "ritual_interpretation": "The verse is a Soma-stotra petition: Soma prepared correctly → sung praise → request for welfare and victory for yajamāna and his continuity.", "theological_insight": "Indra’s aid is both protective and enabling—he grants ‘suvita’ (right passage) through which victory becomes possible.", "etymology_highlights": "suvita = su-√i (good going); tvotāḥ = tvat + √av/√utā (helped by you, protected)." }
