O Lord, as the peaks of great mountains become beautiful when decorated with clouds, Your transcendental body has become beautiful because of Your lifting the earth on the edge of Your tusks.
Purport

The word vibhramaḥ is significant. Vibhramaḥ means “illusion” as well as “beauty.” When a cloud rests on the peak of a great mountain, it appears to be sustained by the mountain, and at the same time it looks very beautiful. Similarly, the Lord has no need to sustain the earth on His tusks, but when He does so the world becomes beautiful, just as the Lord becomes more beautiful because of His pure devotees on the earth. Although the Lord is the transcendental personification of the Vedic hymns, He has become more beautiful because of His appearance to sustain the earth.

Translation
Your form of a boar, personifying the Vedas, appears beautiful with the earth held by your tusks, just as a huge mountain appears beautiful with a huge cloud held on its peak. Just as the earth appears beautiful when held by you, you appear beautiful when embraced by your devotee, the earth. The Lord has the beauty of a huge mountain (kulācalendrasya) with a cloud held on its peak.
