मम my, भुजबलवेगवेगितः by the strength of my arms, महान् great, शरः arrow, अस्य his, महोरसि in high speed, पततु may fall, तनोः from the body, जीवितम् life, व्यपनयतु separate, ततः then, विघूर्णितः reeling round and round, महीम् earth, पततु may fall down.

English Commentary

Spurred by the speed of my strong arms, my arrow will fall on his broad chest and separate his life from his body. Then his body reeling round and round will fall on the ground. इत्यार्षे श्रीमद्रामायणे वाल्मीकीय आदिकाव्ये अरण्यकाण्डे द्वितीयस्सर्गः।। Thus ends the second sarga of Aranyakanda of the holy Ramayana the first epic composed by sage Valmiki.
