English Translation

अनयेन with a wrong policy, अभिसम्पन्नम् endowed, अर्थहीनम् meaningless, अनुव्रते a lady following a vow of chastity, अद्य now, अहम् I, त्वाम् you, सूर्यः Sun, ओजसा with his bright light, सन्ध्यामिव like the morning twilight, नाशयामि dispel.

English Commentary

"O Sita you are following a vow of chastity and treading a meaningless, wrong path. I will destroy you as the Sun dispels the morning twilight with his lustre".
