Translation into French by Cœdès 1937–1966

Puisse Celui que le bienheureux Créateur […] rempli de joie et de satisfaction, a propitié avant sa création du monde entier, Celui à qui Hari fait appel pour la protection de l’univers, Paśupati, réceptacle de la Fortune, vous protéger.

Le premier des brâhmanes connu sur terre sous le nom de Dhuli […] de la conduite des anciens brâhmanes, satisfait chaque jour par ordre de préséance les brâmanes étrangers, par la parole, la nourriture et les boissons.

Par dévotion à l’égard de Paśupati, dont on obtient la connaissance par la parole et la pensée, et pour la stabilité de […] ce vertueux taureau des brâhmanes a établi ici ce bon liṅga de Śambhu conformément aux rites.

Il a donné à ce Siddheśvara tous ces biens acquis légitimement, sans l’apport de la fortune de son épouse.

Quiconque prendrait les biens à commencer par les champs et les esclaves […]
