tamthat — that; evacertainly — certainly; anuafter — after; apiare out of sight dhīyanteare out of sight — are out of sight; lokāḥthe planets — the planets; bhūḥthe three worlds, Bhūḥ, Bhuvaḥ and Svaḥ-ādayaḥthe three worlds, Bhūḥ, Bhuvaḥ and Svaḥ — the three worlds, Bhūḥ, Bhuvaḥ and Svaḥ; trayaḥthree — three; niśāyāmin the night — in the night; anuvṛttāyāmordinary — ordinary; nirmuktawithout glare — without glare; śaśithe moon — the moon; bhāskaramthe sun — the sun.
When the night of Brahmā ensues, all the three worlds are out of sight, and the sun and the moon are without glare, just as in the due course of an ordinary night.
It is understood that the glare of the sun and moon disappear from the sphere of the three worlds, but the sun and the moon themselves do not vanish. They appear in the remaining portion of the universe, which is beyond the sphere of the three worlds. The portion in dissolution remains without sunrays or moonglow. It all remains dark and full of water, and there are indefatigable winds, as explained in the following verses.
