Even among the one-pointed devotees, there is a highest class. They are the ones whose minds Govinda himself has carried off. Their hearts are already gone — taken by Govinda. That is what makes them the best of all.
उन एकान्ती भक्तों में भी श्रेष्ठ वे हैं जिनका मन गोविन्द ने हर लिया है।

These are people whose hearts not even the grace of Nārāyaṇa, the husband of Lakṣmī, could steal. His favor is the highest favor there is — and still it cannot pull their minds away. Only Govinda has taken them. So they stand at the very top.
जिनके मन को श्रीश (लक्ष्मी के पति) का अनुग्रह भी नहीं हर सकता।

Jīva Gosvāmī

govindaḥ śrī-gokulendraḥ |
govindaḥthe word 'Govinda' here means — pratīka, the word being glossed'गोविन्द' (जिस शब्द की व्याख्या हो रही है)
śrī-gokulendraḥthe Lord of Gokula, the king of the cowherd villageश्रीगोकुल के अधीश्वर
govindaḥ — the name Govinda; śrī-gokulendraḥ — means the Lord of Gokula.
govindaḥ — गोविन्द; śrī-gokulendraḥ — श्रीगोकुल के अधीश्वर।
Jīva first fixes who 'Govinda' is. Govinda means the Lord of Gokula. That is, Kṛṣṇa as the king of the cowherd village of Vraja, not any other form.
'गोविन्द' का अर्थ है श्रीगोकुल के अधीश्वर।

upalakṣaṇatvena śrī-dvārakānātho’pi |
upalakṣaṇatvenaby way of standing-for, this name also points to — instr., 'as an indicator'उपलक्षण होने के कारण (संकेतक रूप में)
śrī-dvārakānāthaḥthe Lord of Dvārakāश्रीद्वारकानाथ
apias well — he too is includedभी
upalakṣaṇatvena — taken as an indicator; śrī-dvārakānāthaḥ api — the Lord of Dvārakā too is meant.
upalakṣaṇatvena — उपलक्षण रूप में; śrī-dvārakānāthaḥ — श्रीद्वारकानाथ; api — भी।
Jīva adds that 'Govinda' works here as an indicator. So the Lord of Dvārakā is included too. Naming Gokula's Lord is enough to point at that intimate form of Kṛṣṇa as well, without listing it.
उपलक्षण होने के कारण इससे श्रीद्वारकानाथ भी लिए जाते हैं।
upalakṣaṇa (indicator) vs viśeṣaṇa (defining quality): a viśeṣaṇa is part of what the thing IS — 'the blue lotus,' where blue belongs to the lotus. An upalakṣaṇa only helps you pick the thing out and can point past itself — 'the house with the crow on it,' where the crow is not part of the house. Here 'Govinda / Lord of Gokula' is used as an upalakṣaṇa: it names one form but points beyond itself to gather in the Lord of Dvārakā as well.
उपलक्षण और विशेषण में अन्तर है। विशेषण वस्तु के स्वरूप का अंग होता है — जैसे 'नीला कमल', जहाँ नीलापन कमल का ही धर्म है। परन्तु उपलक्षण केवल वस्तु को पहचानने में सहायक होता है और अपने से आगे संकेत कर सकता है — जैसे 'जिस घर पर कौआ बैठा है, वह घर', जहाँ कौआ घर का अंग नहीं। यहाँ 'गोविन्द / गोकुल के अधीश्वर' उपलक्षण रूप में प्रयुक्त है: यह एक रूप का नाम लेकर अपने से परे संकेत करता है और श्रीद्वारकानाथ को भी समेट लेता है।

śrīśaḥthe word 'Śrīśa' here means — pratīka, the word being glossed'श्रीश' (जिस शब्द की व्याख्या हो रही है)
para-vyoma-adhipatiḥthe ruler of the spiritual sky (Vaikuṇṭha), i.e. Nārāyaṇaपरव्योम (वैकुण्ठ) के अधिपति
śrīśaḥ — the word Śrīśa; para-vyoma-adhipatiḥ — means the ruler of the highest sky, Vaikuṇṭha.
śrīśaḥ — श्रीश; para-vyoma-adhipatiḥ — परव्योम (वैकुण्ठ) के अधिपति।
Then Jīva fixes who 'Śrīśa' is. Śrīśa means the ruler of the spiritual sky, Vaikuṇṭha. That is Nārāyaṇa, Lakṣmī's Lord — set here in contrast to Govinda of Vraja.
'श्रीश' का अर्थ है परव्योम (वैकुण्ठ) के अधिपति।

tatra api ekāntinām — even among the one-pointed devotees, i.e. nānā-avatāra-bhaktānāṁ madhye — among the devotees of the various avatāras; govindaḥ śrī-gokulendraḥ — Govinda being the Lord of Gokula; tena hṛta-mānasāḥ — those whose minds are stolen by him; śreṣṭhāḥ — are the best.
tatra api ekāntinām — 'उनमें भी एकान्तियों में'; nānā-avatāra-bhaktānāṁ madhye — नाना अवतारों के भक्तों के बीच; govindaḥ — गोविन्द; śrī-gokulendraḥ — श्रीगोकुल के अधीश्वर; tena — उनके द्वारा; hṛta-mānasāḥ — जिनका मन हर लिया गया; śreṣṭhāḥ — श्रेष्ठ।
Viśvanātha spells the line out. 'Even among the one-pointed' means: among the devotees of all the different avatāras. 'Govinda' means the Lord of Gokula. The best are the ones whose minds have been stolen by him — by Govinda. So out of every avatāra's devotees, Govinda's are highest.
'उनमें भी एकान्तियों में' अर्थात् नाना अवतारों के भक्तों के बीच में; गोविन्द अर्थात् श्रीगोकुल के अधीश्वर — उनके द्वारा जिनका मन हर लिया गया, वे ही श्रेष्ठ हैं।

śrīśaḥ para-vyoma-īśaḥ mahā-nārāyaṇaḥ — Śrīśa means the Lord of Vaikuṇṭha, Mahā-Nārāyaṇa; tasya api prasādaḥ anugrahaḥ — and even his favor, his grace.
śrīśaḥ — श्रीश; para-vyoma-īśaḥ — परव्योम (वैकुण्ठ) के ईश; mahā-nārāyaṇaḥ — महानारायण; tasya api — उनका भी; prasādaḥ — प्रसाद; anugrahaḥ — अनुग्रह।
Then Viśvanātha fixes 'Śrīśa': the Lord of Vaikuṇṭha, Mahā-Nārāyaṇa. And 'prasāda' here just means his favor, his mercy. So the verse is saying: even the mercy of that supreme Lord of Vaikuṇṭha cannot pull these devotees' hearts away from Govinda.
'श्रीश' अर्थात् परव्योम के ईश महानारायण; उनका भी 'प्रसाद' अर्थात् अनुग्रह।
