(Line 1.) Hail ! Prosperity ! In the 10th year (of the reign) of king Pārthivēndrādhivarman, we (the members) of the assembly of Rājamārttāṇḍachaturvēdimaṅgalam, (a village) in its (own) subdivision in Tiruvūṟalpuram of Maṇaiyir-kōṭṭam, have received from Kumaraḍi-Naṅgai, daughter of Nandiri-Naṅgai, who is the daughter of Dēvaṉār of Tiruvūṟal,It is possible also to interpret Tiruvūṟal-Dēvaṉār as the god at Tiruvūṟal, in which case ‘his daughter’ would mean a servant woman in the temple of Tiruvūṟal-dēva. ninety-two kaḻañju of gold weighed by the standard weight (dharmakaṭṭaḷai-eḍarpuram)Perhaps eḍarpuram here and in No. 180 above has to be explained as iḍaiyāl; see page 357 above, footnote 1; cf. also dhanmakaṭṭaḷai-kal in South-Indian Inscriptions, Vol. I, No. 146, text line 3.. For these ninety-two kaḻañju of gold we (the members) of the assembly of Rājamārttāṇḍachaturvēdimaṅgalam agreed to measure every year without failure, in our village, as long as the moon and the sun (last), ninety-two kāḍi of paddy (measured) by the marakkāl (called) kavarāmoḻi by which the paddy for the sacred daily expenses (tirucceṉṉaṭai) and the (paddy of) pañchavāram due from us to Tiruvūṟal-dēva, are measured, adding it to the sacred (paddy) for current daily expenses and (dividing it) into three partsEvidently the paddy in question was measured out in three different instalments as in the case of the tiruchcheṉṉaḍai-nel. in the manner in which (paddy) for the current sacred daily expenses of Tiruvūṟal-dēva is done, for sacred offerings as long as the moon and the sun (last), to (the image of) Kaligai-Viṭaṅkar set up in the sleeping hall (called) Raṇaśiṅgavīrar within (the temple of) Tiruvūṟal-dēva, by this Kumaraḍi-Naṅgai.

(L. 26.) I, Kumaraḍi-Naṅgai, daughter of Nandiri-Naṅgai, endowed gold in this manner, stipulating that these ninety-two kāḍi of paddy be measured by (the measure called) kavarāmoḻi for (providing) two sacred offerings to Kaligai-Viṭaṅkar. The sacred feet of those who protect this charity (shall) be on my head.
