In hep-th/9903210 (curvature)$^2$ terms of the effective D-brane action were derived to lowest order in the string coupling. Their results are correct up to ambiguous terms which involve the second fundamental form of the D-brane. We compute five point string amplitudes on the disk. We compare the subleading order in $\alpha'$ of the string amplitudes with the proposed lagrangian of hep-th/9903210 supplemented by the ambiguous terms. The comparison determines the complete form of the gravitational terms in the effective D-brane action to order ${\calO}(\alpha^{' 2})$. Our results are valid for arbitrary ambient geometries and world-volume embeddings.
