TRANSLATION.
(Verse 1) Om! Homage to Sambhu, lovely with the moon kissing his lofty head as a fan, the foundation-column for the beginning of the cities of the triple world!
(Verse 2) When it is said that as the Moon was born to the Milk-Ocean, as Kumāra was born as a son to the God of Gods, as the [God] of the Flower-bow to Mura's Slayer, as Jayanta to Sakra, so the General Ravideva was born as son to the worthy Koppadeva, is it necessary to praise his exaltation [any further] ?
