Lyrics:
Manikya veenamupalalayathim
Madalasam manjula vagvilasam
Mahendra neeladwithy komalanki
Mathanga kanyam manasa smarami
Chathur bhuje chandra kalavathamse
Kuchonnathe kunkuma raga shone
Pundrekshu pashankusha pushpa bana haste
Namaste jagatheka mathah
Meaning:
She who carries a melodious veena which is in symphony
she who has a beautiful lotus like face and melodious and sweet voice and smile
She who shines like a beautiful sparkling jewel and is delicate and has a perfect figure
I pray to her whole heartedly who is the daughter of Mathanga.
She who has four hands and the beauty and brilliance of a full moon
she who is heavy breasted and has red colored nostrils
she who holds weapons like a rope, spear, flower arrow, and the wheel
I bow to the mother of the universe.
