Can anyone translate ?

If you'd take the time to provide some context -- just where this appears -- I'm pretty sure you'd have an answer tout de suite.

It appears on the base of a white metal incense burner, but I want to know if it has an English meaning, thanks anyway to all who have replied. Xx

That's correct of course, but if the OP had shown the whole item -- no doubt a bronze something or other -- he'd have gotten a very quick response.

@ClaDriver just copy and paste the chinese text into Google and take a look. It's a common inscription that marks the year the object dates from. In this case it is the Ming dynasty, but please be aware there are many fakes - it is up to you to judge the authenticity of your object

Anything with this mark bought outside the most assured venues will assuredly be a reproduction. The mark means nothing in terms of dating to the period.
