Mantra 2
Pavamāna Soma’s self-purification through the waters and filter, emerging as the radiant king who empowers the rite and grants prosperity
विपश्चिते पवमानाय गायत मही न धारात्यन्धो अर्षति अहिर्न जूर्णामति सर्पति त्वचमत्यो न क्रीडन्नसरद्वृषा हरिः
vipaścite pavamānāya gāyata mahī na dhārātyandho arṣati ahirna jūrṇāmati sarpati tvacamatyo na krīḍannasaradvṛṣā hariḥ

ವಿಪಶ್ಚಿತ ಪವಮಾನನಿಗೆ ಗಾನಮಾಡಿರಿ; ಸೋಮರಸದ ಮಹಾಧಾರೆ ಅಖಂಡವಾಗಿ ಹರಿಯುತ್ತದೆ. ಹಾವು ಜೀರ್ಣ ಚರ್ಮವನ್ನು ತ್ಯಜಿಸಿ ಸರಿಯುವಂತೆ ಅದು ಸರಿಯುತ್ತದೆ; ಆಟದಲ್ಲಿ ಓಡುವ ಕುದುರೆಯಂತೆ ಅದು ಮುನ್ನುಗ್ಗಿ ಹೊರಟಿದೆ—ಹರಿ, ತಾಮ್ರವರ್ಣದ, ಬಲಿಷ್ಠ ವೃಷಭ.
