Interpretation

Commentary
It seems likely that the first and third letters have been subsequently changed. The third letter has the form of a ṣ but the lines forming the loop are shallower than the rest of the letter. The first letter has the shape of a h but the diagonal line forming the prong is a different technique to the straight line. Perhaps s¹nt h- wʿy fm bʿl s²kr (M&Mu)
