The dusts of the feet the entire sports/lands by the cleaning lock of hair/peacock’s tail removed laughter .

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.

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.

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.

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.

His Royal Fortune jayaśrī shone blazing brightly like the glory of Dvaipāyana, born from Parāśara and appeared/ engendered in the womb of Satyavatī.
