English Translation
तादृशः such, सिंहबलः powerful as lion, वृषभाक्षः his eyes resembling a bull's, सः नरर्षभः that one, a bull among men, जलजेन by fish, आत्मजो यथा its own offspring, पित्रैव by his father himself, स्वयम् by himself, हतः killed.
English Commentary
Such Rama, the best among men, powerful like a lion, with eyes fierce like that of a bull has been destroyed by his own father just as the big fish destroys its own offsprings.
