dTranslation by Goodall 2021
I
Victorious is primordial Hari, who lifted the mountain that protects cows [Govardhana] with the lofty bolt of his arm and also [this] mountain of the one who protects cattle (gavāṁ trāyinaḥ).
II
[There was] a certain (yaḥ) moon in the spotless sky that was the lunar dynasty, a mine of pleasing skills {lunar digits}, [and yet] somehow (kenāpi) [nonetheless] of unbearable fieriness for his enemies in battles.
III–IV
Of that [moon,] overlord of kings, the illustrious King Bhavavarman, there was a servant most dear to him (vallabhatamaḥ), a hero (śūraḥ), grateful for what was done [for him] (kr̥tavedakaḥ), who attained the name{title} Mahāsāmanta, bestowed by the grace of his master, and honour in the form of a white parasol and such like [insignia of royalty].
V
His son, not inferior to him in glory (anūnaśrīḥ), was appointed [to be honoured with the title] Jayantakurājaka by Śrī Jayavarman [I], along with marks of honour such as a white parasol.
VI
Further, [once he had been made] Governor of Liṅgapura, [being] a devotee of pilgrimage to sacred places, he made, according to the rules, this altar(?) of Viṣṇu here.
