Default Comments about a shamshir

Hi all,
I have many questions about this shamshir :
1. The translation of the writings in the cartouche
2. The meaning of the figures on the hilt
2. Its age
3. The blade is completly covered by a dark patina. Probably under there is a good wootz. How might I remove only the patina without ruin the damascus ?
Regards
Paolo
