राघव Rama, तां वेलामेव at that time, त्वया by you, वालिनम् Vali, न निहन्मि I will not kill, इति thus, तत्त्वतः truly, वक्तव्यम् should have been said, ततः then, अहम् I, इतः from this place, न व्रजे would not have gone.

'Had you, in fact, told me that you were not going to kill Vali, I would not have budged from this place.'
