The demigods prayed to Brahmā: Please look upon us mercifully, for we have fallen into a miserable condition; because of the darkness, all our work has been suspended.
Purport
Because of complete darkness throughout the universe, the regular activities and engagements of all the different planets were suspended. In the North and South Poles of this planet there are sometimes no divisions of day and night; similarly, when the sunlight does not approach the different planets within the universe, there is no distinction between day and night.

Translation
O Lord! Please create auspiciousness for those whose works have been stopped by the darkness. You should see us, surrendered to you, with a glance of profuse mercy.
Because the darkness, there were no divisions of day and night. See us, surrendered (āpannān) to you, with plentiful (adabhra) mercy.
