Oh connoisseur  of nine arts   with  pretty  shine, Oh mother

Oh goddess  of illusion who is always mother to me

Oh shower of divine mercy , Oh pretty one to her devotees,
Oh Lotus eyed one , Oh divinely pure Goddess,
Oh Parameshwari with the colour of emerald,
Oh Consort of Shankara    who   shines with sweet words.

  1. Namaskaram P R Ramachander sir,
    These kinds of translation, meaning that you have been doing and posting is a great help to not only musicians but also for dancers. I am a classical dance teacher. The meanings and accurate lyrics that you post helps me a lot in choreographing. A big thanks to your contribution to this field sir.
