שנת תרפז ב אייר

שרה התמה והישר[ה]

ראות בקבר נקברה

האם משבעה בנים

בת חמשים וד נפ

השכו קרנו אור

ודמע דמוע כל עין

ילדיה מר יבכיון

מרת שרה בת ר

חיים נ תנצבה

 

English translation of epitaph: 

 

[Passed away] Year (5)687, 2nd of Iyar

Flawless and honest Sara,

Was buried here in this tomb

The mother of seven children

She was 54 years old

Extinguished the light rays

And each eye of his children assembled the tears

Mrs. Sara, daughter of R.

Haim, may his candle light.

May her soul be bound in the bundle of life.
