पितरम् my father, राज्यम् kingdom, न याचे did not ask, मातरम् mother, नानुशासामि did not urge, परमधर्मज्ञम् supremely knowleldgeable in ways of righteousness, आर्यम् esteemed, राघवम् Rama, नानुजानामि I did not consent.

I never asked my father to confer the kingdom on me. I never urged my mother to seek the kingdom for me. I never supported the exile of my esteemed brother Rama, who is supreme in the knowleldge of righteousness.
