In plain words

Your radiance destroys the darkness that prowls through the city of lovely gates. Your blazing arches, massed along you, hang like one vast, spellbinding necklace. On the circle of the earth you gleam like a chain of gold at her throat, and you give the far shore of saṃsāra. In you the rising minds of devotees wander freely. Golden rampart — to you, my salutation.
