I also found the following reference which may be useful.
परीक्षित! कलियुग के अंत में मनुष्य का व्यवहार दुसह बन जायगा. ऐसी स्थिति में भगवान् अवतार ग्रहण करेंगे। प्रिय परीक्षित! सज्जन पुरुषों की रक्षा और धर्म की स्थापना के लिए भगवान् अवतार लेते हैं। सर्वशक्तिमान प्रभु कलियुग में शंभल ग्राम में विष्णुयश नाम के एक ब्राह्मण होगे जो भगवत भक्ति से परिपूर्ण होंगे उनके घर "कल्कि" भगवान् अवतार ग्रहण करेंगे। वे देवदत्त नामक शीघ्रगामी घोडे पर सवार हो कर पूरी पृथ्वी का विचरण करेंगे और कोटि-कोटि दुष्टों को मारेंगे। प्रजा फ़िर से पवित्र आचरण करेगी और उसकी संतान बलवान और दीर्घायु होगी उस समय सत्य युग का प्रारम्भ होगा, भगवान् वासुदेव फ़िर सबके ह्रदय में वास करेंगे।

Explanation: Shambhala is a 'Proper nouns' and can not be translated.
शांभला is an in-correct translation.
Where Asian Proper nouns and special nouns are concerned, letter "a" at the end of the word is normally silent (exceptions are exception!).
