4. You, a wrongdoer (pāpakṛt), are not fit to seek me, just as a sinner is not fit for spiritual accomplishment (siddhi). An improper act, condemned by a woman devoted to one husband (ekapatnī), should not be done by me, who has attained a virtuous family and was born in a great lineage.

nayanti nikṛtiprajñām paradārāḥ parābhavam
8. paradārāḥ atuṣṭam sveṣu dāreṣu capalam
calitendriyam nikṛtiprajñām parābhavam nayanti
8. Another's wives lead a man - one who is discontent with his own wives, fickle, and whose senses are agitated - to a depraved intellect and to ruin.

13. evam nikṛtāḥ janāḥ tvām pāpakarmāṇam vakṣyanti iti
diṣṭyā raudraḥ etat vyasanam prāptaḥ eva harṣitāḥ

uddhariṣyati vegena vainateyaḥ iva uragān
23. That great Rāma, who is like Garuḍa, will swiftly destroy the great serpent-like chiefs of the demons (rākṣasendra-mahāsarpan), just as Garuḍa (Vainateya) devours serpents (uragān).
अपनेष्यति मां भर्ता त्वत्तः शीघ्रमरिंदमः ।

asurebhyaḥ śriyam dīptām viṣṇuḥ tribhiḥ iva kramaiḥ

aśaktena tvayā rakṣaḥ kṛtam etat asādhu vai
25. O demon (rakṣaḥ)! When your stronghold in Janasthāna was destroyed and the army of the demons (rakṣasām bale) was annihilated, this unrighteous act (referring to the abduction) was indeed committed by you, the powerless one (aśaktena).
आश्रमं तु तयोः शून्यं प्रविश्य नरसिंहयोः ।
गोचरं गतयोर्भ्रात्रोरपनीता त्वयाधम ॥२६॥

gocaram gatayoḥ śūnyam āśramam praviśya apanītā
26. Indeed, having entered their empty hermitage when those two lion-like brothers (Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa) had gone out of sight, you, O vilest one, abducted her.

शक्यं संदर्शने स्थातुं शुना शार्दूलयोरिव ॥२७॥

śunā śārdūlayoḥ iva
27. Indeed, upon perceiving the scent of Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa, it is not possible for you to remain in their presence, just as a dog cannot stand before two tigers.
तस्य ते विग्रहे ताभ्यां युगग्रहणमस्थिरम् ।
वृत्रस्येवेन्द्रबाहुभ्यां बाहोरेकस्य निग्रहः ॥२८॥
28. tasya te vigrahe tābhyāṃ yugagrahaṇamasthiram ,

28. tasya te vigrahe tābhyām yugagrahaṇam asthiram

28. te tasya vigrahe tābhyām yugagrahaṇam asthiram,
indrabāhubhyām ekasya bāhoḥ nigrahaḥ vṛtrasya iva
28. Your grappling with those two (Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa) in battle will be precarious, just as the overpowering of a single arm of Vṛtra by Indra's two arms (was decisive).
क्षिप्रं तव स नाथो मे रामः सौमित्रिणा सह ।
तोयमल्पमिवादित्यः प्राणानादास्यते शरैः ॥२९॥

29. kṣipram me sa nāthaḥ rāmaḥ saumitriṇā saha śaraiḥ tava prāṇān ādāsyate,
ādityaḥ alpam toyam iva
29. Quickly, that lord (nātha) of mine, Rāma, together with Lakṣmaṇa (Saumitri), will take away your lives (prāṇa) with his arrows, just as the sun absorbs a small amount of water.
गिरिं कुबेरस्य गतो ऽथ वालयं सभां गतो वा वरुणस्य राज्ञः ।
असंशयं दाशरथेर्न मोक्ष्यसे महाद्रुमः कालहतो ऽशनेरिव ॥३०॥
30. giriṃ kuberasya gato'tha vālayaṃ sabhāṃ gato vā varuṇasya rājñaḥ ,
asaṃśayaṃ dāśaratherna mokṣyase mahādrumaḥ kālahato'śaneriva.
30. giriṃ kuberasya gataḥ atha vālayam

30. kuberasya giriṃ gataḥ,
atha vālayam,
vā varuṇasya rājñaḥ sabhāṃ gataḥ asaṃśayam dāśaratheḥ na mokṣyase mahādrumaḥ kālahataḥ aśaneḥ iva
30. Even if you go to Kubera's mountain, or else to his abode, or to the assembly hall of King Varuna, you will undoubtedly not achieve liberation (mokṣa) from Dasharatha's son (Rama), just like a great tree struck by death and a thunderbolt cannot be freed.
