English Translation

 सूत charioteer, सर्वथा all over, मम to me, बन्धुषु relations, कुशलम् welfare, दुर्लभम् not seem to be true, तथाहि therefore, सम्मोहे deluded, असति it is, मे my, हृदयम् heart, सीदतीव filled with grief.

English Commentary

 I do not see anywhere, O charioteer the wellbeing, of my kinsmen. Hence I feel deluded and my heart is filled with grief.
