Simple Translation
Intermingling of varNas leads to living in hell only for those who destroyed the clan and for the clan itself. For those who spoiled the clan, their ancestors become deprived of offerings of food, water etc [which are offered during pithru kAryams such as SrArdham etc] and fall (into lower planets).
Rendering based on ALkoNdavilli gOvindhAchArya swAmy’s English translation of gIthA bhAshyam
The intermingling is verily damnation to both the caste-demolishers and the caste itself. For, deprived of the offerings of food, water, and rites, the manes (pitaraḥ[1. Departed ancestors, to whom periodical offerings of food, etc., are made by surviving relatives.]) of these men do indeed fall.
