Thank You Alam Shah
It is on a Tibetan Thanka, But I do not know what language they write in.
Just thought I would give it a try

Alan62, no harm trying...

. Shucks... missed the mark.
BTW, could you post picture of the whole piece, please.

Dear Alen

No imposing at all..

I agree with ham… that's Pagspa, they're Tibetan characters..
I’m sorry my friend I’m afraid you need to show it to some expert in Asian languages to figure it out, since it’s a very nice piece artistically.

I’ll be glade to see other pieces and help in any way..

It is such a pleasure to see all these mysterious lines of inlay to reveal their secrets! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us!
ANy ideas on the inscription of the blade bellow? This must be a special style of calligraphy, can you read this one? It could be in Turkish language with arabic script.
