English Translation

 अपेतमाल्यशोभानि deprived of the splendour of garlands, असम्मृष्टाजिराणि च floors of the front yards unsmeared, देवागाराः temples, शून्यानि empty, यथापुरम् as before, नाभान्ति च not shining.

English Commentary

 The temples stand devoid of the beauty of floral offerings. The floors of front yards are left unswept and unsmeared. They look deserted, devoid of brightness of the past.
