Translation by Emmanuel Francis

I

...

(56–58) Furthermore, having said “the lotus-feet of he who protects this are on my head”, having graciously ordered [so], the king (koṟṟavaṉ) made this copper order, as ascertainment (teṟṟu/tēṟṟu).

(58–59) Furthermore, ...

II

Apart from protecting a brahmadeya,

There is no other means of attaining dharma on this earth;

And likewise, apart of seizing it,

There is not other means of obtaining sin on this earth.

III

Other than protecting the property of Brahmins

There is no source of merit;

Other than infringing it

There is no source of sin.

IV

Earth has been given by many

Kings such as Sagara and others;

To whom the land is then,

To him the fruit then.
