Interpretation

Commentary
The letter after the first w looks like a ġ on the photograph but it is unlikely to be as the following letter is clearly an ʿ. After the third b there is possibly a w. The l, t, and y are clear and then there is possibly another w although the crossbar does not seem to go across the whole circle. There is then a l and possibly further letters which it are difficult to interpret.
