He has a long and brilliant life, and his children and animals are such that he becomes famous for them. His achievements also mark him as a great person.
Word-for-word explanation:
Saḥ yaḥ evam etat vairūpam parjanye protam veda, he who knows that this [Sāma called] Vairūpa is rooted in the clouds; virūpān ca surūpān ca paśūn avarundhe, he comes to possess a large variety of animals and beautiful animals also; sarvam āyuḥ eti, he lives the full span of his life; jyok jīvati, he has a brilliant life; mahān prajayā paśubhiḥ bhavati, he becomes famous for his children and for his animal wealth; mahān kīrtyā, he is renowned for his achievements; varṣantam na nindet tat vratam, his vow is not to criticize the clouds that pour rain. Iti pañcadaśaḥ khaṇḍaḥ, here ends the fifteenth section.
Commentary:
It is a characteristic of those who worship the Sāma that they never find fault with others. This is why they do not say anything bad about even the clouds that give rain.
