TRANSLATION
Rukmī drew his bow with great strength and struck Lord Kṛṣṇa with three arrows. Then he said, "Stand here for a moment, O defiler of the Yadu dynasty!
PURPORT
Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī points out that kula-pāṁsana may be understood as a combination of the words kula-pa, "O master of the Yadu dynasty," and aṁsana, "O expert killer of enemies." The ācārya gives the grammatical details that make this interpretation possible.
