Translation by Emmanuel Francis

(1) Prosperity! Fortune!

(1–2) (Eigh)th year of the glorious and victorious Mahārāja.

(2–8) The land that Nātaṉ (Tēvaṉ), the lord of Kuḷappākkam in the Pērūrnāṭu of the Pūliyūrkkōṭṭam, has given for one mid-day glorious food offering, as long as the moon and the sun, … (nicamum), for the Mahādeva of the Tiruvakastīśvara [of] this village: two hundred fifty kuḻīs [in] Kuḷakkollai … in the forest west of Tūmpenappaṭṭi.

(8) This pious act, we are bound to protect it, we, the village delagates.

(8–9) This [pious act is under] the protection of the Panmāheśvaras.

(9–11) The feet of he who protects this pious act […] are on my head.
