वीणाम् veena, परिष्वज्य hugging, प्रसुप्ता slept, काचित् one (woman), महानदीप्रकीर्णा floating in a large river, पोतम् a boat, आश्रिता holding, नलिनीव like a lotusplant, सम्प्रकाशते shines.

Another woman slept hugging her veena. She shone like a lotus plant flung in a large river, clinging on to a boat. (Veena is compared to a boat and the woman to a lotusplant in the ambience of flowing waters of the river. The entire hall had put up such a dynamic view showing hectic life of the inmates).
