anvayArthaH:

payAMsi = milk pAtuM = for drinking asmai = to this shishave = child gopradaH = donor of a cow pUrvAlayaH = by name pUrvAlaya svasutasUnutayA = as his son’s son prajAtaH san = having born nirvANahetuM = one which is capable of granting liberation parAtmavidyAM = the higher science of supreme Brahman alabhiShTa = got kila = well known dAnaM = charity pAtraguNAnukUlyAt = depending on the qualities of the beneficiary phalati = gives fruit dhruvaM = surely

Summary:

It is well known that pUrvAlaya, the donor of a cow to this child for drinking milk was born as his own grandson and got the higher knowledge of supreme Brahman, which is capable of granting liberation. Surely, the fruits of charity depend on the qualities of the beneficiary.

(Having reborn as his own grandson, he became the disciple of Sri Madhvacharya himself and obtained divine knowledge from him and attained liberation)
