कथमेवंविधो वीरो देवदानवदर्पहा ।
कालाग्निप्रतिमो ह्यद्य राघवेण रणे हतः ॥

अन्वयः

देवदानवदर्पहा one who crushed the pride of Devas and Danavas, कालाग्निरुद्राप्रतिमः equal to time spirit and death at the time of destruction, एवंविधः being so, वीरः hero, रणे in battle, राघवेण by Raghava, कथम् how, हतःवै did you die?

M N Dutt

How today forsooth has such a hero-crusher of the hauteur of gods and Dänavas—resembling the fire arisen at the hour of universal wreck, been slain in fight by Raghava?

Summary

"You, who crushed the pride of Devas and Danavas are equal to timespirit and death at dissolution and being a hero, how did you die in the hands of Raghava?"
