राम Rama, त्वयि at you, जातकामा I loved, अहं तु I am also, विनाशाय for my doom, चिरम् for long, निबद्धभावा with my feeling of love fixed on you, तपः austerities, व्रतं च and vows, मोघम् in vain, चरित्वाथ after practising, जीवितम् life, त्यक्ष्यामि will be giving up, अल्पभाग्याम् I am unfortunate one, धिक् what a pity

"O RamaI loved you and concentrated all my love on you for a long time only for my doom. I have observed vows and austerities in vain. I cannot continue it for long. Here I am giving up my life. Fie upon this luckless one (me).
