English Translation

वानरशार्दूल O tiger among Monkeys, तत् therefore, परितापेन अलम् do not regret, वधः striking, धर्मतः righteously, परिकल्पितः committed, वयम् we are, स्ववशे under our control, न स्थिताः are not.

English Commentary

'O tiger among monkeys do not regret. Your death has the sanction of dharma. We are under the control of sastras. We are committed to them. We do not have the freedom to act independently.
