अराजके where there is no king, जनपदे in the country, राजपुत्रा: princes, चन्दनागरुरूषिताः anointed with sandal paste and agaru, वसन्ते in spring time, शाखिनः इव like trees, न राजन्ते do not look graceful.

In a country where there is no king, the princes, anointed with sandal paste and agaru, no longer look graceful like blosoming trees in spring time.
