Solution
Translation in Hindi:
"जंगल, सुंदर, काले और गहरे हैं,
लेकिन मेरे पास निभाने के लिए वादे हैं,
और मीलों जाने से पहले मैं सोता हूं,
और मीलों जाने से पहले मैं सोता हूं।"
Translation in English:
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep."
