Parama pavani  mamava,

Parvatharaja puthrike Ambe

 

Anupallavi

 

Sura vara kinnara  sannuthe , shobhana guna jathe,

Lalithe kara dhrutha  pashangusa  suma vishikesu chape,

Kanchipura vasini , Sri Kamakshi.

 

Charanam

 

Charana vinutha Ganapathi sumanogne,

SArasija dhrutha  mani veene, chandra vadane,

Parameshwari  sevaka jana rakshake ,

Sada pranatha phala dhayike,

Bhandana kandana bhanda Mahisha ,

Mukha chanda daithya mandale ripu dande.

 

English translation

 

Pallavi

 

Oh the purest one Oh daughter,

Of the king of mountains, Oh mother

 

Anupallavi

 

She who is worshipped by devas and Kinnaras,

She who is the source of all good characters,

She who is Lalitha, who holds in her hands,

Noose, goad, flowers, small arrow and sugarcane bow,

She who is Kamakshi who lives in Kanchipura.

 

Charanam

 

She with a pure heart, whose feet is worshipped by Ganapathi,

She who holds the gem studded Veena sitting on a lotus,

She who is the greatest Goddess, who protects her devotees,

She who always gives results to those who pray her,

She who tied and subdued Rakshasas like Mahisha,

And she who destroys asuras in the bevy of enemies.
