О Индра, для тебя, о Адрива, — та непревзойдённая мощь, о Ваджрин, в том, что ты, своей майей, поразил того обманчивого зверя-врага. Воспевая (тебя), мы следуем вслед за небесным владычеством (svarājya).

{ "prastava": "(Stobha prelude) ho-i-hā / oṃ (śākhā-dependent)", "udgitha": "indra tubhyam id adrivo 'nuttaṃ vajrin vīryam yaddha tyaṃ māyinaṃ mṛgaṃ tava tyan māyayā avadhīḥ", "pratihara": "arcann", "upadrava": "anu", "nidhana": "svarājyam", "structure_notes": "‘arcann anu svarājyam’ is a natural refrain-like tail; in sāmanization, ‘svarājyam’ often receives nidhana prolongation to ‘seal’ the intended fruit.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ: prastāva; Udgātṛ: udgītha+upadrava; Pratihartṛ: pratihāra; all: nidhana on ‘svarājyam’." }
{ "gloss_summary": "‘māyinam mṛgam’ denotes the māyā-possessing enemy (Vṛtra etc.) indicated by ‘mṛga’; ‘māyayā’ = Indra’s special means/strategy; ‘adrivaḥ’ = vajra/stone-bearing, strong.", "ritual_interpretation": "Praising Indra’s strategic victory is believed to confer unobstructed ritual efficacy and the sacrificer’s ‘svarāj’ (independent prosperity/authority).", "theological_insight": "Divine power includes upāya (skillful means); the victory over deception is a sacred model for overcoming ritual and inner impediments.", "etymology_highlights": "‘Adrivaḥ’ as ‘adrivat’ (stone-possessing/strong); ‘sva-rājyam’ as one’s own rulership—inner and outer autonomy." }
