अचिन्त्यान्यप्रमेयानि कुलानि नरपुङ्गव।
इक्ष्वाकूणां विदेहानां नैषां तुल्योऽस्ति कश्चन॥
acintyāny aprameyāni kulāni nara-puṅgava
ikṣvākūṇāṁ videhānāṁ naiṣāṁ tulyo ’sti kaścana
acintyāni = are inconceivable; aprameyāni = and immeasurable in their glory; kulāni = the dynasties; nara-puṅgava = O king; ikṣvākūṇām = of Ikṣvāku; videhānām = and Videha; na = no [dynasty]; eṣām = to them; tulyaḥ = equal; asti = because there is; kaścana = whatsoever.
O king, the dynasties of Ikṣvāku and Videha are inconceivable and immeasurable in their glory [because] there is no [dynasty] whatsoever equal to them.
These dynasties are inconceivable, that is, astonishing.
