धर्मवत्सलः righteous, महाराजः great king, मे पिता my father, कस्मात् for what reason, विनाशितः has been destroyed, रामः Rama, कस्मात् for what reason, प्रव्राजितः has been exiled, वनम् to the forest, गतः has gone.

English Commentary

Why was my father the righteous maharaja killed? Why was Rama exiled into the forest?
