Translation by Dominic Goodall12
I
Hara [is supreme/may protect you], who removes suffering [from the universe] (jagad-arti-haraḥ), the supreme Lord (parameśvaraḥ) who (yaḥ) is the agent (kartā) of dissolution, maintenance and creation (pralaya-sthiti-sargāṇām);
II
[…] auspicious (maṅgalaḥ), although (api) wreathed in [snakes] (vyālahāraḥ), who (yaḥ) is without a source (ayoniḥ), [and yet] the Source of All (viśvayoniḥ), and (ca) Lord of All (viśveśaḥ) [though] without lord (nirīśvaraḥ);
III
And (ca) [who] […] though (api) directly perceptible [to yogins?] (pratyakṣaḥ) is beyond the range of the senses (atīndriyaḥ); and (ca) wakeful (jāgarūkaḥ) [though] sleepy (nidrāluḥ), a store of compassion (dayālayaḥ) [though] holding a spike/trident in his hand (śūlapāṇiḥ);
IV
[…] who (yaḥ) is the best of gurus (varo guruḥ) for ascetics (yatīnām) and (ca) who (yaḥ), though (api) endowed with all [the powers of yogic] sovereignty (samastaiśvarya- yuktaḥ), he himself (svayam) has [only] a garment of [elephant-]hide (kr̥tti-vāsāḥ);
V
Whom (yam) those who know the final part of the Vedic corpus (vedānta-vidaḥ) know (viduḥ) [as that Great Person] Himself (svayam), risen up (uditam) with the colour of the sun (āditya-varṇam), beyond (parastāt) darkness (tamasaḥ);
VI
The dust (-rajaḥ) of whose (yasya) lotus-feet (pādāmbuja-), when fallen (cyutam), caressed by bees that are the jewels [of the headresses...] (-maṇi-bhramara-lālitam), purifies (punāti) the world (bhuvanam);
VII
Obeisance (namaskriyā) performed (kr̥tā) to whom (yatra) certainly (dhruvam) destroys the calamities of death [... and ...] (...mr̥tyu-vipatti-śamanī) [and] accomplishes the three types of happiness (sukha-tritaya-sādhanī).
VIII
There is (asti) a king (rājā), […] [,]with a radiance equal to that of the moon (rājarāja-sama-dyutiḥ), called (iti) Śrī-Jayavarman, whose commands are venerated by princes (rājanyārcita-śāsanaḥ);
IX
Who (yaḥ) is skilled at protecting his subjects (prajā-rakṣaṇa-dakṣiṇaḥ) […] in the duty of [princes] (kṣatra-dharme), the dirt of whose soul’s impurities has been destroyed (kṣīṇātma-kilbiṣa-kṣodaḥ), the lord of kings (kṣoṇīpatīśvaraḥ) in [every] direction (dikṣu);
X
And (ca) who (yaḥ), towards the brushwood of his enemies (vipakṣakakṣeṣu), is similar (samaḥ) to fire (āśuśukṣaṇeḥ) [in destroying/burning them], [and who,] having his loins girt [in readiness] (baddha-kakṣaḥ) for protecting (trāṇe) the earth (kṣiteḥ), is similar to the Lotus-eyed [Viṣṇu] (puṇḍarīkekṣaṇopamaḥ);
XI
Who (yaḥ), in desiring (kāṅkṣan) the following of the path of duty (dharma-patha-kramam), well trodden by kings […] (...kṣitipakṣuṇṇam), caused the earth to be marked/attracted (arañjayat kṣamām) permanently (nityaṁ), just as (iva) [he attracted] patience (kṣamām) which is capable of [effecting] what is beneficial (hita-kṣamām);
XII
Who (yaḥ) protected (ararakṣat) statesmanship (nayam), which promotes the safekeeping (kṣemaṅkaram) of wealth/glory (lakṣmyāḥ) [such that it remained ...,] undiminished (akṣīṇam), unreduced (akṣudram), unwounded (avikṣatam), kept far apart (dūrotkṣiptam) from blemishes (apakṣālaiḥ);
XIII
Although (api) he grants infinite fruits (ananta-phaladaḥ), like the [wish-fulfilling] tree (kalpa-drumaḥ), he is “not without leaves”/“without even a drop of mis- fortune” (avipallavaḥ);15 [although] a repository of loveliness (kānti-nilayaḥ), like (iva) the moon (śaśī), he is “not discerned at the appearance of the evening”/“not characterised by a profusion of faults” (na doṣodaya-lakṣitaḥ);
XIV
Like (iva) a second (aparaḥ) Nārāyaṇa without conch and discus in his hands (a-śaṅkha-cakra-pāṇiḥ) and not (na ca) “one who is mounted upon the serpent of the world” [since he is rather “one who straddles the world’s full extent”] (ākrānta-bhuvanābhogaḥ) [nor is he] “the killer of the demons” (dānavāntakaraḥ) [since he is rather “one whose hands are never emptied of the action of giving” (dāna-vānta-karaḥ)];
XV
Who (yaḥ) was like (iva) a prince among geese (haṁsa-rājaḥ) followed by many Rājahaṁsa-geese (aneka-rājahaṁsa-niṣevitaḥ), never (na jātu) falling from his wings (pakṣapātī), always (sarvadā) fond of [Lake] Mānasa, a king among souls, attended upon by numerous goose-like kings, never partisan, always holding the spiritual dear;
XVI–XVII
Whom (yam) ill-repute (akīrtiḥ) considered as (akhyata) fearful (bhīrum), riches ()(dhana-sañcayaḥ) as without affection (niḥsneham), and (ca) desire (tr̥ṣṇā) as unapproachable (durupasarpam), the brahmin (dvijaḥ) as a wish-fulfilling tree (kalpa-vr̥kṣam), and (ca) whom (yam) error (doṣaḥ) [considered] as unsuitable for refuge (anāśrayaṇīyam), love (ananyajaḥ) as difficult to possess (durgraham), vice (vyasanam) as insipid (nīrasam), [and] women (strī) as a lusty/frolicsome (krīlam) boar (kolam);
XVIII
Who accomplished (yena kr̥tam) in many ways (anekaśaḥ) the purification of the behaviour of primordial kings (ādi-rāja-carita-prakṣālanam) through his virtues (sva-guṇaiḥ),which were white as milk, jasmine, the moon and snow (kṣīra-kundendu-tuṣāra-dhavalaiḥ).
XIX
Knowing (buddhvā) wealth (dhanam) to be perishable (vinaśvaram), impermanent (aśāśvatam), finite in nature (nidhana-dharmi), Causing to be manifest (unmīlayan) a renown (yaśaḥ) that perdures (sthiram), that cannot be stolen (ahāryam) and that is appreciated by noble folk (ārya-jana-juṣṭam), Moreover (anu) not considering (agr̥hṇan) even (api) [the attainment of mere] heaven ()(triviṣṭapam) as especially happiness-bestowing (prakāma-sukham), And furthermore (punaḥ) desiring (icchan) to attain (āptum) that blessed (śivam) state (padam) that is eternal (sanātanam) and free from affliction (anāmayaṁ ca),
XX
This [same king] (saḥ) established (prātiṣṭhipat), with very great (paramayā) devotion (bhaktyā) [the divinity] Śrī-Jayaikanātha, cast from thirty-two weight[-units] of gold (dvātriṁśad-bhāra-hema-saṁsiktam), in the Śaka year [ marked by 5] arrows, 8 and 6 (bāṇāṣṭa-ṣaṭ-śāke).
(22–25) In the Śaka year six hundred and eighty five, fifth day of the dark fortnight, month of Kārttika, constellation of Puṣya, Monday, My Lord Śrī Jayavarman orders Lṅassa (or Lṅas Sa) together with townsmen with regard to My Lord […] My Lord, another [god] who was ordered to be co-beneficiaries with My Lord […] to protect this temple, [at] this place.
(25–26) It is forbidden that brahmins, members of royal family, [at] Slau Pāna.
(26–27) It is forbidden to place flowers, bananas (ce) [and] areca nuts in the precinct of […] in all over this place.
(27–28) It is forbidden that descendants (ple?) of the people of Kloñ […] use Cāturjātakapramāṇa Māhātmika Sthāna […]
(29–30) [Those who] […] rob, transgress this [royal] order as already mentioned […] [suffer] punishment [in hell] as long as the sun and the moon [exist].
