In this article, the tensor product $L(\lambda)\otimes F(\varpi_1)$ is explicitly decomposed into irreducible summands. This decomposition may be used in order to define some invariant first order differential operators for metaplectic structures. Keywords: Symplectic spinors, harmonic spinors, Kostant's spinors, tensor products, decomposition of tensor products, modules with bounded multiplicities, Kac-Wakimoto formula.
