English Meaning
That one of dreadful deeds the long hairs on whose long tail, coppery, and yellow, and black, and white, thrown up, look like the rays of the Sun, and are trailing over the ground, is the monkey, named Hara; whom follow hundreds and thousands (of monkeys) desperately upraising trees, intent upon (scaling) Lankā-the leaders of the monkey-king and his servants present (in this conflict.)
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
