। ॥ ५९ ॥
In plain words
A lute may be beautifully made, and its player may be brilliant on the strings — but all that does is please a crowd. It won't make you king.
Close to the Sanskrit
The beauty of form of a vīṇā [and] the excellence of playing its strings — that is merely for the delighting of people; it does not avail for [attaining] sovereignty.
