Translation into French by Cœdès 1952

Le roi des roi connu sous le nom de Śrī Indravarman eut pour hotar le maître Nandikācārya, qui pratiquait de grandes austérités.

Dans l’année Śāka marquée par huit, l’espace (0) et les flèches (5), celui-ci a installé suivant la règle le feu sacré Nandikeśvara et, après avoir fait l’oblation au feu, il l’honore sans cesse.

A ceux par qui les cinq éléments subtils de ce (feu sacré) sont attisés au moyen d’une feuille, il donne (la satisfaction) des cinq désirs, avec des éventails d’or.
