It is an urgent invitation to Indra to come quickly to the sacrifice and drink the sweet Soma prepared for his strength, joy, and victorious action.
Because Soma is ritually extracted by pressing with stones (adris). The verse highlights that the offering is properly prepared and specially intended for Indra’s exhilaration.
It recalls the myth that Soma was brought from beyond the worlds by the śyena, showing Soma as a divine, powerful substance. The hymn uses this to urge Indra to drink as master of its might.
