Prosperity! Fortune!

Twentieth year of the victorious king Kampavarman.

The gold that Paṭṭāṉ, one among the governing delegates āluṅ kaṇattār of Kāvatippākkam in the Paṭuvūrkkōṭṭam, has given so as to provide water in the glorious temple of Perumāṉaṭikaḷ in Tiruppontai in Rājamallaccaturvecimaṅgala: eleven kaḻañcus.

With the interest coming from this gold, I have given so as to provide water.

The dust from the glorious feet of he who protects this pious act are on my head.
