హే మఘవన్ ఇంద్రా! ఈ ఇందవః (సోమ బిందువులు) నిన్ను ఉల్లాసపరచుగాక—సున్వత్ (సోమం పిండేవాడు)కు ధనప్రదానార్థం. ఇక్కడికి రా; చమూలో పిండిన ఈ సోమాన్ని—జ్యేష్ఠ హవిని—పానంచేయి. దీనివల్లనే నీవు నీ సహస్ (బలం)ను ధరిస్తావు.

{ "prastava": "o (stobha-based prelude; commonly elongated to establish rāga-like contour in Kauthuma gāna practice)", "udgitha": "mandantu tvā maghavan indra indavo rādhodeyāya sunvate", "pratihara": "ā amuṣyāḥ somam apibaḥ", "upadrava": "camū-sutaṃ jyeṣṭhaṃ", "nidhana": "tat dadhiṣe sahaḥ", "structure_notes": "Semantic core sits in udgītha (exhilarate/for bestowal) and pratihāra (come/drink). Upadrava-nidhana seals the ritual efficacy: ‘chief libation’ → ‘strength assumed’. Actual gāna will insert stobhas and vowel-lengthen key summons.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ: prastāva; Udgātṛ: udgītha + upadrava; Pratihartṛ: pratihāra; Nidhana: typically all (or Udgātṛ leading with support), per śākhā practice." }
{ "gloss_summary": "‘indavaḥ’ are expressed Soma-juices that gladden Indra; ‘rādhodeyāya’ is ‘for giving wealth’ to the ‘sunvat’ (presser/sacrificer). ‘camū-suta’ is Soma pressed into/for the camū vessel; ‘jyeṣṭha’ is the chief libation; by drinking it Indra ‘establishes/assumes’ strength (sahas).", "ritual_interpretation": "A stotra functioning as an invitation and empowerment formula: Soma offered correctly becomes the means by which Indra is pleased and made effective for bestowal.", "theological_insight": "Divine strength is not arbitrary; it is ‘kindled’ through yajña—exhilaration (manda) becomes cosmic efficacy when consecrated.", "etymology_highlights": "mand- (to gladden/intoxicate); rādhāṃsi (boons/wealth); sahas (strength/might) as an assumed, stabilized power through Soma." }
