Meaning:
Oh Akhilandeshwari! The one who is adept in the traditions of the Agamas (Vedas), please protect me.

Her inherent nature pervades all the worlds, is pure, sublime. She is the dark-complexioned one and is the repository of all arts.

She is worshipped by Lambodara (Ganesha) and Guruguha (Murugan). She possesses shining long tresses and always sports a graceful smile. She is the supreme one worshipped by Saraswati. She is the bestower of boons and the daughter of Himavan (King of Mountains), the honorable one. She is Sharada, venerated by Indra and Vishnu. She is extolled through raga jujavanti (dvijaavanti) and takes delight in music of the instruments like jhalli, maddala, and jarjhara. She is the conferrer of supreme knowledge.
