Rendering based on ALkoNdavilli gOvindhAchArya swAmy’s English translation of gIthA bhAshyam

‘Them, ever athirst for union, I, in love, endow with that illuminated understanding by which they may pass to Me.'[1. Vide Śrī Bhāshya, P. 562 (Telugu Edition).]

Satata-yuktānām means: those who worship Me incessantly, intensely praying for communion with Me. I give them, out of loving grace, that ripe acute understanding (=illumination=buddhi-yoga) by which they can join Me.
