How to read these English letters (IAST)

Our explanation Arjuna speaks again. He says it is fitting (sthāne), Hṛṣīkeśa, that the world rejoices and delights in Krishna's praise (Telang: 'renown'), that the rākṣasas flee in fear in every direction, and that all the hosts of siddhas bow to him.

हिंदी अर्थ अर्जुन फिर बोलते हैं। वे कहते हैं कि हे हृषीकेश, यह उचित ही है कि कृष्ण की कीर्ति से जगत हर्षित होता है और उनमें अनुराग करता है, राक्षस भयभीत होकर सब दिशाओं में भागते हैं, और सिद्धों के सब समूह उन्हें प्रणाम करते हैं।
