Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
-
sabhājitāḥ
—
honored
Past participle of sam + √bhaj — 'thoroughly partook of'. Sabhājana = formal hospitality. The verse closes the hospitality circle: priests received dakṣiṇā, demigods received pūjā, and now the guests go home satisfied.
-
khe - carāḥ
—
travelers of the sky
Compound: khe (in the sky) + cara (mover). 'Sky-goers' — gandharvas, vidyādharas, cāraṇas, etc. The Vedic taxonomy of beings who occupy the middle worlds — they too go home praising Kṛṣṇa-līlā.
-
kṛṣṇam kratum ca śaṁsantaḥ
—
praising Lord Kṛṣṇa and the sacrifice
Accusative + participle: 'singing-the-praises-of Kṛṣṇa and the kratu'. Gauḍīyas note Vyāsa's word-order — Kṛṣṇa first, kratu second. The order of agra-pūjā has been retained even in the parting song.
-
mudā
—
happily
Instrumental of mud — 'with delight'. Cognate with English 'mood'. The Bhāgavatam closes the assembly on muda — the joy of those who have witnessed Bhagavān honored first.
According to Śrīdhara Svāmī, the term khecarāḥ here refers to the pramathas, mystic yogīs who accompany Lord Śiva.
The devatās like Brahmā, the humans, such as the kings, and the khecaras or siddhas after being honored, returned to their abodes. They sang the praised of Kṛṣṇa: yad dharma-sūnor bata rājasūye nirīkṣya dṛk-svastyayanaṁ tri-lokaḥ kārtsnyena cādyeha gataṁ vidhātur arvāk-sṛtau kauśalam ity amanyata At the rājasūya sacrifice of Yudhiṣṭhira, all the people of the universe, seeing the form of the Lord which created auspiciousness in all directions, considered that the skill of the creator in making the most beautiful objects in the recent universe was nullified completely at that time. SB 3.2.13 yan martya-līlaupayikaṁ sva-yoga- māyā-balaṁ darśayatā gṛhītam vismāpanaṁ svasya ca saubhagarddheḥ paraṁ padaṁ bhūṣaṇa-bhūṣaṇāṅgam Kṛṣṇa possesses that form suitable for human pastimes to show the full capacity of his yoga-māyā. That form astonishes even the lord of Vaikuṇṭha. It is the pinnacle of auspicious qualities and enhances the beauty of his ornaments. SB 3.2.12 They also praised the sacrifice because it became most remarkable by the presence of the Lord. All the righteous people thus pleased whereas the wicked became agitated because of their sins.
The devatās like Brahmā, the humans, such as the kings, and the khecaras or siddhas after being honored, returned to their abodes. They praised Kṛṣṇa, who attracte everyone’s heart because of his affection for his devotees. Because of the sacrifice, he revealed in a special manner his form, qualities and pastimes, for the sacrifice was greater in qualities than that performed by Varuṇa and other devatās (mentioned in verse 13).
When the marriage is finished, the guests go home praising the bride — but the bride they praise is not the only bride. They sing Kṛṣṇa's name as much as the yajña's, because they have understood, in this house, which is the bride.
