ITRANS:

mahimānaṁ vilokyāsyanārado bhagavān ṛṣiḥātodyaṁ vitudañ ślokānsatre ’gāyat pracetasām

Translation:

After observing the glories of Dhruva Mahārāja, the great sage Nārada, playing his vīṇā, went to the sacrificial arena of the Pracetās and very happily chanted the following three verses.

Purport:

The great sage Nārada was the spiritual master of Dhruva Mahārāja. Certainly he was very glad to see Dhruva’s glories. As a father is very happy to see the son’s advancement in every respect, so the spiritual master is very happy to observe the ascendancy of his disciple.
