Oh my mother come, Oh Lakshmi of great luck come.

Charanam

1.Moving one feet followed by another,
Showing the sound of anklets,
Come during the worship by good people,
Like the butter coming in the curd.

2.Come fast the daughter of king Janaka,
Come along with the rain of gold,
Fulfill all wishes of the mind,
With the light of crores of Suns.

3.Oh Goddess wearing golden bracelets.
Show in the homes of your great devotees,
Daily festival , daily happenings of good,
In a true manner , Oh Goddess who shows truth
In the hearts of saints and good people.

4.Come granting uncountable luck,
Come with shaking of your hands,
Oh goddess with lotus eyes and Thilaka of saffron,
Oh Goddess who is the queen of Venkatramana

5.Come the queen of Purandhara vittala,
Who is the Alagiri Ranga who is interested,
During the time of worship on Friday,
With showering of mixture of Ghee and Sugar.
