tam - Him; nÄga-pÄÅ›aiḥ - with the mystic nÄga noose; bali-nandanaḥ - the son of Bali (BÄṇÄsura); balÄ« - powerful; ghnantam - as He was striking; sva - at his own; sainyam - army; kupitaḥ - angered; babandha ha - he captured; Å«á¹£Ä - ŪṣÄ; bhṛśam - extremely; Å›oka - by sorrow; viá¹£Äda - and discouragement; vihvalÄ - overwhelmed; baddham - captured; niÅ›amya - hearing; aÅ›ru-kalÄ - with teardrops; akṣī - in her eyes; arautsÄ«t - cried.
But even as Aniruddha was striking down the army of BÄṇa, that powerful son of Bali angrily caught Him with the mystic nÄga-pÄÅ›a ropes. When Åªá¹£Ä heard of Aniruddha’s capture, she was overwhelmed with grief and depression; her eyes filled with tears, and she wept.
The ÄcÄryas explain that BÄṇÄsura could not actually capture the powerful grandson of Lord Kṛṣṇa. However, the Lord’s lÄ«la-Å›akti, or pastime potency, allowed this to happen so that the events described in the next chapter could take place.
Thus end the purports of the humble servants of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupÄda to the Tenth Canto, Sixty-second Chapter, of the ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam, entitled “The Meeting of Åªá¹£Ä and Aniruddha.â€
