सन्ध्यारागोत्थितैः owing to the touch of the radiance of the evening Sun, ताम्रैः with red colour, अन्तेष्वधिक in the tinge, पाण्डुरैः with pale white colour, स्निग्धैः shining, अभ्रपटच्छेदैः pieces of cloth of clouds, अम्बरम् sky, बद्धव्रणम् इव appears like a bandaged wound.

English Commentary

'The sky looks as though its wounds are dressed with pale white moistureladen bandage cloths of clouds, red in the border, tinged as they are with the glow of twilight.
