Meaning
The sarga ends in a longer metre. The commentary: seeing all the people of the king's realm just as before, Līlā's joy knew no bounds; and, certain of everyone's life, she shone like the moon. The joy is real, and also a misreading: she rejoices that her people live, when what she has seen is that two worlds hold the same people. The next sarga asks which of the two is real.
