Can't help you with translation but just wanted to say this is an absolutely gorgeous shamshir.

It is the first time I see the elaborate flower carvings on a shamshir blade as they are usually found on knives.

I hope somebody can help you with the translation!

Beautiful sword, very pleasing wootz pattern. I can see 35 in islamic numbers, at the bottom of first mark. Also the Yelman (double edge) is very long, I have not seen many swords like that.
