The Bābur-nāma in English (Memoirs of Bābur)

Note 1905 — SECTION III. HINDŪSTĀN (continued 2)

Annette Susannah Beveridge translation

There is some confusion in the text here, the Ḥai. MS. reading birinj-dīn tīshī(?) nīma qūīūbtūrlār—the Elph. MS. (f. 240b) biring-dīn bīr yāssī nīma qūīūbtūrlār. The Persian translation, being based on the text of the Elphinstone Codex reads az biring yak chīz pahnī rekhta and. The word tīshī of the Ḥai. MS. may represent tasht plate or yāssī, broad; against the latter however there is the sentence that follows and gives the size.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
