Inscription is Farsi written in Arabic letters in the Khat Ta'liq style of calligraphy. Since I can't understand Farsi and since the style means the letters are a bit jumbled in the cartouche, I can't really make out what it says. It's hard to transcribe from the individial letters since each language that adopted the Arabic writing system have their own distinct pronunciation. Good luck.
