English Meaning

Pallavi
Oh mother who likes to sit on lotus flower,
Who likes to always play Veena,
Who has a hear always filled by joy,
And who lives on the earth.

Anupallavi
I surrender to her is who happy with her pretty feet,
Who is in the hearts of poets who are happy with her,
Who is on the lotus and is surrounded by gems.

Charanam
Oh mother with two lotus like eyes,
Oh mother who loves lowly people who surrender to her,
Oh pure one who has a face like the full autumn moon,
Oh Saraswathi,one who sits down,Whose character attracts great devotees,
Oh Goddess who is always after knowledge, Who is always good,
Oh Goddess who is blessed with two great busts, who is white in colour,
Oh Goddess who shines holding a collection of books in her hand.
