Translation into French by Cœdès 1937–1966

La victoire est à Śrī Prahasiteśvara […] son corps éclatant baigne, pour ainsi dire, la terre dans un océan d’or liquide.

Du [roi], qui était un soleil dans ce ciel qu’est la lignée des vénérables souverains de la terre, émanait une majesté [ou: une chaleur] intolérable, même quand il était au milieu de ses États [ou: d’un halo].

En voyant son corps charmant, Rati fut comme surprise et dit: « En vérité! c’est à tort que depuis longtemps je me croyais veuve! ».

Bien qu’il fût jeune et désirable, les jeunes beautés ne l’entouraient pas; il n’aimait que les sciences absorbées et même digérées par les vieillards.

[…]

Bien qu’il fût plein de joyaux, comme l’océan, […] les flancs, même du roi des montagnes [ou: les partisans, même du roi des rois].

Son image n’avait pas de place chez les femmes et dans les biens des autres, elle se trouvait seulement dans sa bonne conduite, ses bonnes actions […] et sa gloire.

Solidement enracinés, difficiles à escalader, pourvus de branches nombreuses, bourgeonnant, imprégnés d’eau consacrée, producteurs de bienfaits, tels étaient les arbres de ses victoires.

II fut le premier des hommes vertueux et dévoués à leurs parents, même lorsque, par sa puissance, il dépassait la limite du domaine de ses parents.

10.

Les gens de bien disaient de lui qu’il n’était pas un refuge pour tous, seulement en ce sens qu’il évitait la fréquentation des péchés, comme par mépris pour un contact avec les ennemis.

11.

Les jolies femmes, voyant la beauté de ce séducteur, pensaient que même une œillade de lui valait la peine d’être conquise sur l’ennemi.

12.

Ayant perçu sa gloire immense, innombrable: et sans tache, le Créateur déplore la petitesse du monde qui est pourtant son œuvre.

13.

A son approche, la poussière (rajas) produite par le piétinement de son armée sur le sol, manifestait complètement l’obscurité (tamas) qui cache la distinction entre les êtres (sattvas).

14.

Sa politique, douée des trois éléments de puissance, rendait les rois étrangers satisfaits de leur chute, bien qu’ils fussent fermement enracinés sur leur terre.

15.

Considérant comme secondaire son propre avantage [ou: déterminant le sens originel (d’un autre mot)], par son éminente conduite [ou : par une formation composée dont il était le premier terme], il produisait l’avantage d’autrui [ou: un autre sens (pour un mot désignant) un objet], comme la manifestation du mot «vertu» [ou: d’un qualificatif].

16.

La puissance attribuée à Pr̥thu et aux autres [personnages légendaires], bien qu’elle soit incroyable pour les gens d’à présent, leur est apparue comme vraisemblable, depuis qu’ils ont vu sa valeur dans le combat.

17.

Chaque jour, les feux croisés émanant des joyaux [ornant] la coiffure des rois, répandaient leurs taches multicolores sur ses deux pieds qui étaient pourtant sans tache.

18.

Sa beauté incomparable […].

19.

Douées des éléments constitutifs de l’État [ou: du radical], d’expérience [ou: de suffixe], de prévision [ou: de substitut], de vertu [ou: du degré fort d’une voyelle], de prospérité [ou: du degré le plus fort], de connaissance traditionnelle [ou: d’augment], sa bonne politique et la grammaire […].

20.

[…] ce roi, anxieux d’obtenir le ciel, a vaincu l’éléphant d’Indra.

21.

[…] l’ennemi […] la connaissance […] dans le combat […].

22.

[…] même de ceux qui entendaient […].

23.

Chez les femmes des ennemis, le veuvage […] la jouissance de la demeure d’un ami […].

24.

Par ce roi compatissant […] même un brâhmane […].

25.

Ayant comme par crainte de Kali, confié leurs affaires à ce roi que jamais personne n’avait pu vaincre nulle part, il semble que […].

26.

Lui qui […] par les larmes des femmes […] ayant épousé une jeune femme […].

27.

En entendant, même à juste titre, louer ses propres vertus, il baissait la tête. Ah! il y a […] des rois […].

28.

[…] son approche […] des joyaux […] de l’océan […].

29.

Par ce Śrī Īśānavarman, qui avait pour cuirasse son honneur dans la bataille, et dont on célébrait les bonnes actions […].

30.

[…] Śrī Prahasiteśvara […].

31.

Ces quatre images de Hari […] de l’Archer [Śiva] uni au corps de […], de [Śiva] ayant pour signe le taureau […],

32.

ce liṅga d’or, [Brahma] à quatre faces, [cette image] de Śarva aux membres enveloppés dans l’obscurité de la nuit,

33.

cette image de Sarasvatī, et celle de Nr̥tteśvara, tout cela a été érigé par ce roi conformément aux rites.

34.

[Il] a érigé cette image en argent du [taureau] Vr̥ṣabha, telle l’image intacte de Dharma à l’âge Kr̥ta.

Commentary

The inscription is almost identical to K. 442. The restitution of several stanzas of the northern doorjamb is based on K. 442.

La victoire est à Śrī Prahasiteśvara <gap reason="lost"/> son corps éclatant baigne, pour ainsi dire, la terre dans un océan d'or liquide.

Du <supplied reason="subaudible">roi</supplied>, qui était un soleil dans ce ciel qu'est la lignée des vénérables souverains de la terre, émanait une majesté [ou: une chaleur] intolérable, même quand il était au milieu de ses États <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: d'un halo</supplied>.

En voyant son corps charmant, Rati fut comme surprise et dit: « En vérité! c'est à tort que depuis longtemps je me croyais veuve! ».

Bien qu'il fût jeune et désirable, les jeunes beautés ne l'entouraient pas; il n'aimait que les sciences absorbées et même digérées par les vieillards.

Bien qu'il fût plein de joyaux, comme l'océan, <gap reason="lost"/> les flancs, même du roi des montagnes <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: les partisans, même du roi des rois</supplied>.

Son image n'avait pas de place chez les femmes et dans les biens des autres, elle se trouvait seulement dans sa bonne conduite, ses bonnes actions <gap reason="lost"/> et sa gloire.

Solidement enracinés, difficiles à escalader, pourvus de branches nombreuses, bourgeonnant, imprégnés d'eau consacrée, producteurs de bienfaits, tels étaient les arbres de ses victoires.

II fut le premier des hommes vertueux et dévoués à leurs parents, même lorsque, par sa puissance, il dépassait la limite du domaine de ses parents.

Les gens de bien disaient de lui qu'il n'était pas un refuge pour tous, seulement en ce sens qu'il évitait la fréquentation des péchés, comme par mépris pour un contact avec les ennemis.

Les jolies femmes, voyant la beauté de ce séducteur, pensaient que même une œillade de lui valait la peine d'être conquise sur l'ennemi.

Ayant perçu sa gloire immense, innombrable: et sans tache, le Créateur déplore la petitesse du monde qui est pourtant son œuvre.

A son approche, la poussière <supplied reason="explanation"><foreign>rajas</foreign></supplied> produite par le piétinement de son armée sur le sol, manifestait complètement l'obscurité <supplied reason="explanation"><foreign>tamas</foreign></supplied> qui cache la distinction entre les êtres <supplied reason="explanation"><foreign>sattvas</foreign></supplied>.

Sa politique, douée des trois éléments de puissance, rendait les rois étrangers satisfaits de leur chute, bien qu'ils fussent fermement enracinés sur leur terre.

Considérant comme secondaire son propre avantage <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: déterminant le sens originel (d'un autre mot)</supplied>, par son éminente conduite <supplied reason="subaudible">ou : par une formation composée dont il était le premier terme</supplied>, il produisait l'avantage d'autrui <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: un autre sens (pour un mot désignant) un objet</supplied>, comme la manifestation du mot «vertu» <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: d'un qualificatif</supplied>.

La puissance attribuée à Pr̥thu et aux autres <supplied reason="subaudible">personnages légendaires</supplied>, bien qu'elle soit incroyable pour les gens d'à présent, leur est apparue comme vraisemblable, depuis qu'ils ont vu sa valeur dans le combat.

Chaque jour, les feux croisés émanant des joyaux <supplied reason="subaudible">ornant</supplied> la coiffure des rois, répandaient leurs taches multicolores sur ses deux pieds qui étaient pourtant sans tache.

Sa beauté incomparable <gap reason="lost"/>.

Douées des éléments constitutifs de l'État <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: du radical</supplied>, d'expérience <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: de suffixe</supplied>, de prévision <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: de substitut</supplied>, de vertu <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: du degré fort d'une voyelle</supplied>, de prospérité <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: du degré le plus fort</supplied>, de connaissance traditionnelle <supplied reason="subaudible">ou: d'augment</supplied>, sa bonne politique et la grammaire <gap reason="lost"/>.

<gap reason="lost"/> ce roi, anxieux d'obtenir le ciel, a vaincu l'éléphant d'Indra.

<gap reason="lost"/> l'ennemi <gap reason="lost"/> la connaissance <gap reason="lost"/> dans le combat <gap reason="lost"/>.

<gap reason="lost"/> même de ceux qui entendaient <gap reason="lost"/>.

Chez les femmes des ennemis, le veuvage <gap reason="lost"/> la jouissance de la demeure d'un ami <gap reason="lost"/>.

Par ce roi compatissant <gap reason="lost"/> même un brâhmane <gap reason="lost"/>.

Ayant comme par crainte de Kali, confié leurs affaires à ce roi que jamais personne n'avait pu vaincre nulle part, il semble que <gap reason="lost"/>.

Lui qui <gap reason="lost"/> par les larmes des femmes <gap reason="lost"/> ayant épousé une jeune femme <gap reason="lost"/>.

En entendant, même à juste titre, louer ses propres vertus, il baissait la tête. Ah! il y a <gap reason="lost"/> des rois <gap reason="lost"/>.

<gap reason="lost"/> son approche <gap reason="lost"/> des joyaux <gap reason="lost"/> de l'océan <gap reason="lost"/>.

Par ce Śrī Īśānavarman, qui avait pour cuirasse son honneur dans la bataille, et dont on célébrait les bonnes actions <gap reason="lost"/>.

<gap reason="lost"/> Śrī Prahasiteśvara <gap reason="lost"/>.

Ces quatre images de Hari <gap reason="lost"/> de l'Archer <supplied reason="subaudible">Śiva</supplied> uni au corps de <gap reason="lost"/>, de <supplied reason="subaudible">Śiva</supplied> ayant pour signe le taureau <gap reason="lost"/>,

ce <foreign>liṅga</foreign> d'or, <supplied reason="subaudible">Brahma</supplied> à quatre faces, <supplied reason="subaudible">cette image</supplied> de Śarva aux membres enveloppés dans l'obscurité de la nuit,

cette image de Sarasvatī, et celle de Nr̥tteśvara, tout cela a été érigé par ce roi conformément aux rites.

<supplied reason="subaudible">Il</supplied> a érigé cette image en argent du <supplied reason="subaudible">taureau</supplied> Vr̥ṣabha, telle l'image intacte de Dharma à l'âge Kr̥ta.
