• tanvaḥ prāṇam iva utthitāḥ — rising as if bodies receiving their vital air
  Phrase: tanvaḥ (bodies) + prāṇam (life-air) + iva (as if) + utthitāḥ (risen). The Bhāgavata's bold image — separation from a beloved devotee is death; reunion is resurrection. Gauḍīyas read vaiṣṇava-saṅga in exactly this register.
• cira-darśana-kātarāḥ — agitated from (not) seeing for a long time
  Compound: cira (long time) + darśana (seeing) + kātarāḥ (agitated, distressed). The technical vocabulary of viraha — long absence of darśana causes kātaratā. Rūpa Gosvāmī catalogues this state in detail.
• pariṣaśvajire gāḍham — they embraced firmly
  Phrase: pariṣaśvajire (perfect of pari-√svaj, embraced around) + gāḍham (tightly). Embrace as bhakti's bodily idiom. Note this verse already foreshadows verse 39's interior embrace — the gopīs will take Him into their hearts.
• hṛṣṭāḥ — delighted
  Past participle of √hṛṣ — to thrill. Hṛṣṭa is the standard Bhāgavata term for the delight of bhakti-meeting. The Lord's name Hṛṣīkeśa (master of the senses) shares this root — He thrills the senses of His devotees.

A body without prāṇa is no body — when prāṇa returns, the limbs rise. The Vṛṣṇis without Nanda were corpses of grief; his arrival is the prāṇa that lifts them.
