Oh Mother Giving mercy  protect us mother, the  chief of  the world

Mother who is in  Thiruperum thurai who has a form   well decorated

candrOdaya vadana kalyAni Agama purANi manOnmaNi

Oh  Vani, who has sweet honey like hair  surrounded by honey bees,

The blessed Goddess holding a parrot who talks   like a parrot,

The auspicious one who has   a face like   rising moon,

Who  is as old as Vedas and is a gem of our mind

2: vArija dala   sadrsha nayana vistari (ambA) malayadhvaja pANDya kumAri

She who has  broad eyes like  petals of lotus,

Who is the  daughter  of Malaya  Dwaja  Pandya

Who is the one who helped  Tamizh of  Chidambaram

She   who has the music of soul   and who is full of mercy
