Translation
1.
The dusts of the feet […] the entire sports/lands by the cleaning lock of hair/peacock’s tail […] removed laughter […].
2.
There was a lord of the lords of the earth, Śrī Indravarman, a recipient of glory, whose arrival/birth was the autumn for the moon that was the lineage of king of kings of the whole Kambuja.
3.
As though (iva) because of fear of sinking into the ocean of Indravarman’s beauty, the god of Love (makaradhvajaḥ) must have made the sea-monster (makaraṁ) his beautiful vehicle.
4.
The Earth was thoroughly wrapped (veveṣṭyate) with the extensive excellent garland that was his fame, like one stream of Gaṅgā feeling love for the ocean.
5.
Displaying dust/rajas in his military campaigns (yāne), strength/sattva in his arms (bhuje), darkness/tamas in his enemies, he appeared (reje) like the Creator, who creates, maintains and destroys embodied beings [using respectively rajas, tamas and sattva].
6.
His Royal Fortune (jayaśrī) shone blazing brightly like the glory of Dvaipāyana, born from Parāśara and appeared/ engendered [in the womb] of Satyavatī.
7.
[…]
