English Translation

सा such, इयम् thisTataka, पन्थानम् the path, आवृत्य obstructing, अध्यर्धयोजने at one and half yojanas distance, वसति living, यत: for which reason, ताटकाया: Tataka, वनम् forest, अत एव for that reason, न गन्तव्यम् one should not traverse.

English Commentary

Tataka lives at a distance of one and a half yojanas from here obstructing the path. Since Tataka dwells in this forest, no one comes here (because of fears).
