Devi…aathmaraagam aekan, kanyavaniyil,

Saagarangal meettum sopaanageetham aayi
Nirayum nin shruthiyil en gaanalaapam
[As the temple songs played by the oceans
my singing fill with the tunes of you]

Gamari…rimapanidhanimapanisanisari
Sanipamapamarisa nisarimapa…nisarimapa

Saagarangal meettum sopaanageetham aayi
Nirayum nin shruthiyil en gaanalaapam
[As the temple songs played by the oceans
my singing fill with the tunes of you]
Madanayaamini…hridaya sourabham
tharalamaam shalabhangal aayi nukaraan nee varu mandham
[Hey passionate night… this fragrance of the heart
to drink like tremulous butterflies, you come softly]

Devi…

Paarvanangal thedum vanachandrakaanthiyil
somam pol pakaru nin raagonmaadam
[In the full moon light of the forest which fortnights search for
please share your musical ecstasy like nectar]
Paarvanangal thedum vanachandrakaanthiyil

Manju aninjoru ee gandhamaadhanam
thaliridum manam aakuvan mazhavil thaer irangi njaan
[This fragrant sensuousness wearing a fog,
I alighted the rainbow chariot to be the heart where this sprouts]

sukhadam kalagaanam pakaraan anayu, gandharva veena aakoo nee…
[Hey Goddess…to give music to souls in this uncharted forest,
please come to share this comforting mellifluous song , be a heavenly instrument of music]
