Verse 1) When a century of years, increased by fifty-seven of the Guptas had passed away, when Budhagupta was ruling the earth;

Verse 2) On the seventh of the month of Vaiśākha, when (the asterism) Mūla was visible in the sky, the image was caused to be made by me, Abhayamitra, a Buddhist monk.

Verses 3-4) Having caused to be made this wonderful image of (Buddha) accompanied by Devaputras, decorated with hands upraised, exquisite umbrella and lotus throne, (and) painted with a layer of painting—whatever spiritual merit accrues, may it be for the attainment of the extinction (of worldly existence) by (my) parents and preceptors and of mankind!
