तपस्वी the miserable, सुमन्त्रः Sumantra, आशु swiftly, गङ्गापरपारम् other side of Ganga, गतम् reached, रामम् of Rama, प्रततम् continuously, निरीक्ष्य having gazed, अध्वप्रकर्षात् due to long distance, विनिवृत्तदृष्टिः turning away his sight, व्यथितः distressed, बाष्पम् मुमोच shed tears.

The wretched Sumantra kept gazing at Rama who swiftly reached the other side of the Ganga and only when he could not see him because of long distance, he turned away his gaze and, overcome with grief, shed tears.
