Oh Mother (“vAni”) Saraswathi (“Vani”), please support me (“AdarincavE”)

Sister (“sahOdari”) of enemy (“vairi”) of Sambara,

Oh Goddess of lotus (“kamal-Eshavri”) who has a conch (“kambu”) like neck (“gaLEsita”)

Oh divine Goddess (“paradEvi”) if you (“ninnu”) are sung about (“bhajiyincE”),

oh Goddess who sits on a lotus (“pankaj-Asani”) ,

You protect (“brOcE”) your devotees (“bhaktulanu”),

Oh goddess who has the divine Veena in her hand (“vara vINA-pANi”),

Oh Goddess with pretty speech(“vAg-vilAsini”), Oh queen (“rANi”) who decorates (“alankAri”) Harikesapura (“harikEshapura”)
