Be patient Martin. Zifir will certainly come up with the translation of this nice piece. You did your part, now just sit back and wait........

Sorry for taking this long but this one proved to be a hard nut to crack. At first glance I thought it's the names of seven sleepers but no, this is something else. Any idea Dom? Can it be Arabic?
