dTranslation by Dominic Goodall
I
Victorious is He with the moon diadem, of incomparable power, the Lord, whose eight forms control (tantritam) the beginningless universe !
II
Having conquered all his enemies by means of his shrewd polity (sunīti°) and broad-reaching power (°pr̥thuśakti°), he who fosters (prakaroti) the progeny of [all] four groups of society (gaṇavargāṇām),
III
the lotus of whose pair of feet, decorated with the filaments that were the toenails, was waited upon by the bees that were the diadems of constantly prostrating vassal kings,
IV
whose (yasya) unfailing fame (amoghakīrtiḥ), pure (amalā), spreading out in all directions (digantaravisarpiṇī), like the moon’s moonlight born of its rays {but emanating from his hands} (karajā), is praised (kīrtyate) by poets (kavibhiḥ),
V
- by the command (ājñayā) of that Śrī-Īśānavarmadeva, a [veritable] Viṣṇu {a repository of splendour} (śrīnivāsasya) because of his broad stride {because of his valour} (vikramāt), there was a person who (yaḥ) was appointed (adhikr̥taḥ), for the protection (pālanāya) of his merit[orious foundation]s (puṇyānāṁ).
VI
He who (yaḥ) was the overlord (adhipatiḥ) of administrative officers (tantrādhyakṣeṣu) for the South-facing ŚrīGambhīreśvara, specifically (eva) in respect of auspicious (kuśaleṣu) deeds (karmasu).
VII
For whom, what he most desired (iṣṭaṁ), in birth after birth (janmajanmasu), was X… towards his gurus, firm attachment to devotion (bhaktinibandhanam) towards Śiva (bhave), and constant immersion in recollection [of Śiva] (sadānusmr̥tiyogaḥ),
VIII
In this place (atra) by that (tena) yogin, by name Vidyācandra, the founder (yajvanā), this [god] Śrī Prabhāsasomeśa was correctly installed (supratiṣṭhitaḥ) in accordance with [scriptural] injunctions (vidhinā).
IX
May the Bhagavān [Viṣṇu] installed [here] in this same piece of ground of Him [viz. Prabhāsasomeśa] (yasya) go to a relationship of fixed [shared] revenue with that same Śambhu [namely Prabhāsasomeśa], who faces North [with respect to Gambhīreśvara?].
X
By that same (tena) founder (yajvanā), who was conscious of favours rendered to him (kr̥tavedinā), this (ayam) deity (devaḥ) Tantrānubandhaka {who protects the administration} (tantrānubandhakaḥ) was brought (ānītaḥ) to the earth (bhuvam) here and was attached [fiscally?] (pratibaddhaḥ) to that (tasmai) [other deity?].
XI–XII
Whoever should wish to take the wealth of cattle, fields, slaves and so forth that he given to this [god] for the stable maintenance of the performance of worship of that [Śiva], may that worst of men go to the terrible punishment of [the hell called] Avīcī, along with his line of sons and grandsons, while never attaining [human] birth again.
