Text of the Uncle-Nephew Alliance Tablet

Emperor Muzong of The Great Tang, an embodiment of human perfection literary and military arts, filial piety and moral integrity, and the Sacred Tsanpo of the Great Tibet Tristug Detsan, uncle and nephew, have met with agreement to become allied as one. In order to maintain the alliance forever, and so that it may be witnessed and discussed by ecclesiastical and secular communities for generations hence, the treaty is engraved on this stone tablet.

 

Emperor Muzong and Tritsug Detsan, uncle and nephew, have met with agreement on a wide range of considerations for the present and the future so as to allow all people, within and without, to live in peace and happiness under all conditions. For the sake of eternal goodness, both have agreed to maintain their old friendship and neighborliness. Both nations, Tibet and Han, should observe their traditional boundary east where of lies the Great Tibet's territory. Both parties should not treat each other as enemies, should not attack one another, and should not annex one another's territory. In case of suspicion, both parties have the right to question the suspect, but then should send him back provided with clothing and provisions. Having established the present alliance, both nations should inform one another of favorable news. Envoys sent by both parties should take the old route of the past; the horses should be changed at Jiangjungu; to the east of Suirongshan, the Great Tang is responsible for their welfare; to the west of Qingshuixian, the Great Tibet is responsible for their welfare. As the relation-ship between uncle and nephew has met with improvement, so loyalty and respects should be heightened in a like manner so as to avoid friction, sudden attacks, or hostilities of any sort. Even the frontier guard should be free of suspicion and anxiety, and should live at ease each within their border. May this happiness last from generation to generation, and fine-sounding praise travel like the rays of the sun and the moon. May this noble deed bring peace to the Tibetans in the land of Tibet and happiness to the Hans in the land of the Hans. May the alliance be eternal and immutable. The alliance is sworn in the presence of the Triple Jewels, gods, and the sun and the moon and the stars; it is sworn by the sacrifice of an animal. He who breaks the alliance is a scourge to the Tibetans and Hans and may be condemned. The act of condemnation should not be considered as a nullification of the alliance.
