TRANSLATION.

Hail ! Prosperity ! (Verse 1.) In (the year) twice five (i.e. ten), which was engraved on palm-leaves,^[3] (from) the year when (the name of) Śatti, the king of the Kâḍavas, was entered on a gold leaf,^[4]─ Pallavamârâyan of enduring fame, who is respected by (all) the inhabitants of the world, having freed (the villagers) of hunger, caused to be built also a sluice, composed of stones, for the water-tank at Taṇḍalam.

(V. 2.) The lord of the beautiful goddess of the (lotus) flower (i.e. Lakshmî), Pallava- mârâyan, who is beloved by the excellent goddess of the Tamil country, graciously constructed a sluice for the tank at Taṇḍalam in Pôḷiyûr-nâḍu.
