Translation
Vom Lärm vielfältiger Instrumente und vom Donner der Kriegstrommeln getroffen, zerbrach ihr Mut; die betäubten Feinde verließen sogleich Reich, eigenes Heer, Städte und Frauengefolge und flohen. Kamboja, Tālajaṅgha, Śaka, Yavana, Kirāta und andere—schuldig an früheren Vergehen—irrten aus Furcht vor zahllosen Waffen in alle Himmelsrichtungen.
