I am giving an explanation taken from a website which explains best but there is an error in

the General Translation for which I am correcting the error since you want to know the
meaning of this Mantra.

What I am pasting is the corrected version.

The last line of the mantra is Mrityor Mukshiya Maa Amrtaat which is most commonly
thought of as to Liberate us from Death for the sake of Immortality but the actual meaning is
Liberate us from Death and Not liberate us from Immortality.
The word "Maa" is Sanskrit carries the meaning NO or NOT.

Not liberate us from Immortality means that we should not be mortals forever and in this
prayer we are praying for us to transcend the Cycle of Life and Death.
Its a slight twist of words that is most of the while sort of not noted and written sometimes a
bit off course.
I have pasted the corrected version below.
