yathā – tvad-yaśaḥ-kumuda-bandhu-kaumudī śubhra-bhāvam abhito nayanty api | nandanandana kathaṁ nu nirmame kṛṣṇa-bhāva-kalilaṁ jagat-trayam ||159||

Translation

O son of Nanda! Since the light of the moon of Your good qualities has already turned everything radiant (white), how can it make the world thick with Kṛṣṇa prema (kṛṣṇa also means darkness)?

Purport (Nectar of Devotion)

It is stated that the diffusion of Kṛṣṇa’s fame is like the moonshine, which turns darkness into light. In other words, if Kṛṣṇa consciousness is preached all over the world, the darkness of ignorance and the anxiety of material existence will turn into the whiteness of purity, peacefulness and prosperity.
