译文
The mists gather — that is the hiṅkāra; a cloud is born — that is the prastāva; it rains — that is the udgītha; it lightens and thunders — that is the pratihāra; it stops — that is the nidhana. This vairūpa is woven into Parjanya.

The fifth sāman — the vairūpa ("the Multiform") — is woven into Parjanya, the god of rain: the mists are the striking-up, the cloud the setting-forth, the downpour the lifting-up, the thunderstorm the taking-up, the clearing the cadence: the storm-liturgy (already familiar from 2.3) receives a melody by name.
The name is aptly chosen: vairūpa is from virūpa, "of many forms": rain is the most many-faced of the sky's sāmans: drizzle, downpour, hail, thunderstorm — a thousand forms of one song; and the fruit (the next verse) will play upon the same words: a multiform melody will yield multiform cattle. The concord is one, its guises numberless: the vairūpa teaches one to recognise a single order beneath unlike masks.
