Dear Dom ,
I asked a friend from the Caucasus because of the name "Bong"
Here is his answer:
in Caucasus we haven't the name Bong it's not Asian aria...,
His translation attempt :
Amal Chamafa bin (?Yunadj ??)
Dom would you verify this please.

Regards
Kurt

Thanks again for the translation.
I'm sorry for asking for the name "Bong".
Perhaps the master was unable to write properly.
I have the same problems with the English language.
