Sanskrit text, Unicode transliteration, Word-for-word and English translation of verse 1.6.64:

प्रफुल्ल-पद्म-नेत्राभ्या� वर्षन्न् अश्रूण� धारय� �
�-गद्गदं जगादेद� परानुग्र�-कातर� � ६४ �

praphulla-padma-netrābhyā� varṣann aśrūṇi dhārayā |
sa-gadgada� jagādeda� parānugraha-kātara� || 64 ||

Śī ṛṣṇa, who is always eager to show mercy, began to speak in a choked voice while shedding constant tears from eyes that resembled full-blown lotuses.

Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

(By Śīla Sanātana Gosvāmī himself including a deep purport of that commentary)

He always remains eager to show great mercy, involuntarily demonstrating His magnificent kindness. Therefore, it is indeed appropriate for 󲹲 Śī ṛṣṇa to cry in a loud voice for His beloved devotees.
