। ॥ ६६ ॥
In plain words
Sarasvatī is singing Paśupati's varied deeds on her Vīṇā. You nod and begin to praise her song; the sweetness of your words so eclipses the soft voice of her strings that she quietly draws the cloth over her instrument.
Close to the Sanskrit
While Vāṇī sings the many exploits of Paśupati on her Vipaṃcī lute, you nod and begin a word of praise. Its sweetness puts the lute's gentle strings to silence, so Vāṇī quietly covers her own Vīṇā with its cloth.
