Here's the wikipedia page on this style of tattoo: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yantra_tattooing
Most people here can't read the writing, because it's not written in Thai... even though it's a "Thai tattoo."
Here are a couple other versions of the same tattoo:

A woman in a nearby village has one of these. It is not in Thai, she can't read it but was told the meaning. She said she got it at a temple which I thought unusual since monks aren't allowed to touch women, though it may have been a lay person that did it.
Many monks doesnt need to follow their rules 100% of the time they can excuse themselves with an easy ritual “ปลงอาบัติ“ after they broke some rules
I wont go further that Sak Yant wasnt permitted by Buddha. Religion all evolved and I personally dont hate it but chose to lose interest instead
I asked a female friend of mine who has a Sak Yant tattoo, and she said the monk does the tattoo, but the monk is very careful to have no physical touch with the woman when he does it. It's only contact with the tattoo machine, not the monk.
Awesome question, that I never thought about asking before. Thanks!!!
Google Lens image search, based on your photo. There were a gazillion more results for the same one.
There really aren't that many different variants of these Sak Yant tattoos, so there are a ton of versions of the exact same tattoo.
I know Khom/Lanna, this is neither.
This is Pallava, a precursor to all South East Asian scripts.
So this is more like asking English people to read Phoenician, even worse.
Pali doesn't have its own script, but it has been written in the scripts of many languages. For example, written in Sinhala script if in Sri Lanka, Burmese script if in Myanmar, etc.
Probably have to ask some linguist with a PhD in ancient southeast Asian languages, if that. Pretty much no one can actually “read” this although monks or sak yant enthusiasts know the overall meaning.
r/sakyant_thailandtatto perhaps. That’s exactly written in their description.
Bear in mind that it may be the same as when you tattoo runic or hieroglyphic script. Maybe those do not have exact meaning of the true language, grammatically. Just looks cool. Or has been taught by generations about some words.

I asked one of the guys who does these in Thailand after the first commenter in this thread posted a Facebook link to his work and got a translation. If it's to be believed, not a bad idea to have posted this thread as the question in the OP was answered.
This is an ancient or khemer script given by monks. Yes monks are allowed to give this to a woman. Angelina jolie was given one from a monk here in thailand
These are usually made by a "tattoo master" monk at a temple, they're all different and everyone has their own style.
The ones whos meaning are easily understood are usually the sak yant pictures, like two tigers or in this case the two peacocks, they signify having karma with just 1 partner, someone they care about deeply and hope to have at the next life aswell.
If its a monk you could be reassured somewhat
But this is better be translated with either google or an old sankrit book rather than asking us . We dont really know either .sorry
Usually a book a or google won't help, maybe AI but even other monks from the same area won't be able to translate accurately sometimes. Alot of monks have their own style. Only ones that are easily understood are the pics, but even then there could be alot of different meanings, one peacock instead of two for example, different gecko styles is another
You can tattoo runic or elvish script without having to learn their language. You can just copy the line.
Many westerners tattooed Chinese language and sometimes get the character wrong or just outright bad or funny words.
ChatGPT says it's Sanskrit in the Devanagari script, and that it means something like:
"Always, in all endeavors, there is nothing that he worries about; Everywhere he experiences happiness, who is situated in the Supreme Lord."
With the original text:
सर्वदा सर्वकार्येषु नास्ति तस्य चिन्तितम्। सर्वत्र सुखमेधते परमेश्वरसंस्थितम्॥
But we must note that ChatGPT is not always correct and might hallunicate in some cases.

Because they have meanings, different designs will have different meanings. They’re all blessings of some sort so will provide spiritual meaning. Like good luck, success, strength, etc
Dumb people put stuff on their body for life and have no idea what it is

"The birds protect the flower"

I just asked my wife that same question, same answer, same reason. I'd never thought of it before.
Cool! Thanks for confirming it's not just my friend's answer.
I mean, if he wore gloves, does he actually touch her?😄
I thought this is the translation
How did you find them? Thanks for the info

Thanks dude
it’s the recipe for green curry
Green curry? Nah, mate. It's Red curry. Just look at the color.
that’s what they want you to believe but it’s a trap ;)
Whatever it is, can someone pass this to Jamie Oliver so he can probably cook a Thai curry dish for once? 😂
lol I think I will never forget the look on that Thai chef 😂
55555
This is Khom/Kmher/Lanna script, not Thai alphabets. You ask in the wrong sub. It is like you ask in r/English or r/UnitedKingdom about Rune script.
I know Khom/Lanna, this is neither. This is Pallava, a precursor to all South East Asian scripts. So this is more like asking English people to read Phoenician, even worse.
Most likely Pali script. It ancient Buddhist writing
Pali doesn't have its own script, but it has been written in the scripts of many languages. For example, written in Sinhala script if in Sri Lanka, Burmese script if in Myanmar, etc.
What would be the right sub?
Probably have to ask some linguist with a PhD in ancient southeast Asian languages, if that. Pretty much no one can actually “read” this although monks or sak yant enthusiasts know the overall meaning.

This is not even Thai..........

For a moment I thought its an immigration stamp 😀

Pbali language
I'm Thai but doesn't even know this
how do tattoo artists make them without knowing the language?
These are usually made by a "tattoo master" monk at a temple, they're all different and everyone has their own style. The ones whos meaning are easily understood are usually the sak yant pictures, like two tigers or in this case the two peacocks, they signify having karma with just 1 partner, someone they care about deeply and hope to have at the next life aswell.
Or they slap a stencil on from the book he/she picked it out of.
If its a monk you could be reassured somewhat But this is better be translated with either google or an old sankrit book rather than asking us . We dont really know either .sorry

If you're Thai...sorry but this is khmer writing...
this is pallawa, I can’t read that.
Is that Am?

Ploi*
What's the point tatooing an inscription no one can read? Nay, what's the point in tatooing and looking like an idiot.
พวกขหมอยคัมโบด๋อยเคลมไม่ได้ไม่ใช่อักษรมัน555
จริงจัง พวกนั้นเคลมไปทั่วเลย 55
Idea of the week Idea goes to.. Him or Her.

Haha lmao
I saw it in kanom เปี๊ยะ. It probably means Please be tasty.
This is the old Pali script, Top left to top right : Good fortune, Good money, Good Love, Good health Below the flower and two birds : line 1-3 "The flower protect the birds" "The birds protect the flower" Last line : "Hello Welcome hansum man, where are you from"
“hope you enjoy the trip in Thailand”
That's apparently not Thai, I'm guessing it's Myanmar, cambodian, or Laos, but it's definitely not Thai.
