译文
He who knows the support of this sāman stands firm. Its support is speech itself: for it is established in speech that this breath is sung. And some say: the support is food.

The third possession is pratiṣṭhā, the support: for the sāman it is speech, since a melody stands upon a word as a flame upon a wick; the prāṇa "is sung, established in speech". Breath and word uphold each other: life gives the song its height, the word gives it its footing; neither stands without the other.
And there is an honest footnote: "some say — food": the singing breath stands upon bread as well (Śvetaketu learned this by fasting, ChU 6.7). The Upaniṣad does not choose between the schools — both are right on their own tier: the song rests on the word, the word on the breath, the breath on food, and food, as we know, on Being. Every support is a step to the next; the last Support is one for all.
