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].

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

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.

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 […].

10.

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

11.

[…]

12.

[…]

13.

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

14.

[…]

15.

[…]

16.

[…]

17.

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.

18.

[…]

19.

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

20.

[…]

21.

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.

22.

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

23.

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

24.

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

25.

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

26.

[…]

27.

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

28.

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

29.

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

30.

[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. 440. The restitution of several stanzas of the northern doorjamb is based on K. 440.

Th stanza XVI does not have an equivalent in K. 440.

In the stanza XVII of K. 440, the term [pratyahaṁ] is found instead of āsthāne in the stanza XXIV of K. 442.
