1, She who is born in a pot floating on the sea,

Who shines with the gold ornaments she wears,

Who became happy on hearing the music of Agasthya,

And who always is with the Kakustha king Rama

Ali kula nibha veni,

Maga samrakshana Rani ,

Mama   bhagya karini

2.Goddess who   has the form of universe,

Who has hair  which is similar   to bevy of bees,

Who is the queen of him who protects Yagas

And who  is the cause   of my luck.

3.SAranagatha paalane

Satha mukha    madha dhamane,

THarunarunaabja nayane

Thyagaraja   hrud sadane.

3.Oh  Goddess who protects those  who surrender to her,

Who destroyed     the pride of the hundred faced one,

Who has eyes of the red colour   of the lotus,

And who lives  in heart of Thyagaraja.
