mā - not; evam - thus; syuḥ - they could be; manda-bhāgyāyāḥ - of a woman who is truly unfortunate; kleśāḥ - miseries; nirveda - of detachment; hetavaḥ - the causes; yena - by which detachment; anubandham - the bondage; nirhṛtya - removing; puruṣaḥ - a person; śamam - real peace; ṛcchati - obtains.

A person who has developed detachment can give up the bondage of material society, friendship and love, and a person who undergoes great suffering gradually becomes, out of hopelessness, detached and indifferent to the material world. Thus, due to my great suffering, such detachment awoke in my heart; yet how could I have undergone such merciful suffering if I were actually unfortunate? Therefore, I am in fact fortunate and have received the mercy of the Lord. He must somehow or other be pleased with me.
