Oh Narayani , Oh mother of Dharma

Oh Goddess with golden limbs. Oh sistrer of Consrt of Lakshmi,

Please protect me oh Katyayani

When I entreat you “save me” , “save me”

Oh lotus eyed one  if your mind does not melt,

And you do not protect me, who else will do it?

Please shower boons on me prays Thyagaraja
