TRANSLATION.
Om. (Verse 1.) May he (Vishnu) protect you, from whose navel (rises) the lotusflower which Vedhas (Brahman) has made his abode, and may Hara (Siva) protect you, whose head is adorned by the lovely crescent of the moon!
2. There was a lord of the earth (called ) Krishnaraja, who resembled Murari (Krishna), and who, like another incarnation of the god of justice," gave away immeasur able wealth.
3. Even in summer the whole firmament had exactly the same appearance as during the rainy season, because the rays of the sun were obstructed on the sky by the dust, which was raised by the tall chargers of Subhatunga.
4. He was succeeded by his son, the illustrious Dhruvaraja, who conquered all kings and resembled the morning sun (by) his great majesty and his widespread prowess (or heat).
5. His fame, which resembles the rays of the moon, is sung in full by the Vidyadhara women, who dwell on the uppermost ridge of the mountain of the gods (Meru).
6. He had (a son) called Govindaraja, who was able to bear the burden of the earth, who resembled Partha (Arjuna), who, like Prithu, knew (how to distinguish between) good and bad qualities, who was the cause of unequalled sorrow to the wives of irresistible foes, and whose prowess was very widely known.
7. Though there were several sons, this clever and handsome (prince), — like another Rama, received on account of his superior virtues the kingdom, to which anointed kings paid homage, from the famous lord, his father Nirupama.
8. He ruled righteously his whole kingdom together with the four oceans (and thus) filled the hearts of men with the highest joy.
