2.57.38

itīva vadataḥ kṛcchrād bāṇābhihatamarmaṇaḥ
tasya tv ānamyamānasya taṃ bāṇam aham uddharam

These words the boy could scarcely say,
As tortured by the shaft he lay.
Twisting his helpless body round,
Then trembling senseless on the ground.
Then from his bleeding side I drew
The rankling shaft that pierced him through.
With death's last fear my face he eyed,
And, rich in store of penance, died.'

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1870, The Rámáyan of Válmíki, translated into English verse
