Translation by Krishna Sastri 1920

(1) Hail! Prosperity!

(1–4) In the 13th year of [the reign of] king Pārthivendrādhipativarman, the queen consort Tribhuvaṉa-Mahādeviyār gave for two perpetual lamps to [the god] Veḷḷaimūrti-Perumāṉaṭikaḷ in the śrīkōil of Koṅgaraiyar at Uttaramēru-caturvedimaṅkalam, [a village] in its [own] subdivision in Kāliyūr-kōṭṭam, 96 sheep which neither die nor grow old placing them in charge of the cultivators (veḷḷāḷar) of the different quarters (paṉmaiccēri) [of this village] on condition that they would themselves protect and maintain [the lamps] as long as the moon and the sun [endure].

(4–5) [She again gave] 96 sheep which neither die nor grow old in charge of the merchants of the middle bazaar (naṭuvil aṅkāṭi) who also agreed to protect and maintain [the lamps] as long as the moon and the sun [endure].

(5–6) These same would [thus] protect the sheep [given on account] of these two lamps and cause to be measured out daily without fail one uri of ghee for [maintaining] the perpetual lamps.

(6–7) This gift was placed under the supervision (kaṭaikāṭci) [of these two communities].

(7) If the sheep thus presented are not supervised, the temple servants (devaraṭiyār) themselves […] of one mañcāṭi of gold daily to [i.e., on behalf of] the then-reigning king.
