Transliteration
l ʿbd bn rfʾt bn ʿbd bn grmʾl w ts²w[q] ʾl- {ʾ}b -h
Translation
By ʿbd son of Rfʾt son of ʿbd son of Grmʾl and {he longed} for his {father}

Interpretation

Commentary
The q of the word ts²wq is not in the photograph and the last five letters are written on the third face of the rock. The fourth ʾ is rather doubtful as there appears to be a curve attached to one fork of the letter and the vertical stroke. There are further lines next to the last part of the inscription.
