There is no meaning; it's a nonsense poem

Most of the meaning is obvious. A person slays a monster named the Jabberwock. The odd first stanza is explained in the book that the poem came from, Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, in the chapter Humpty Dumpty.

It's about a prince that kills the Jabberwocky with his vorpal blade and then rests by the Tum Tum tree. His father, the king, is so proud of him because he shunned the frumious bandersnatch and avoided the Jub Jub bird.

it is a nonsense poem. I like it for some unknown reason. I have a copy of it hanging by the computer.
