Amma Upachara Slokam (Tamil)

Amma Upachara  Slokam

Translated  by 
P.R.Ramachander

1.Dhyanam (Bringing the form of Goddess  to our mind)

Karumbu villenthi  kanayaam  malar iynthum  kayyilenthi ,
Virumbiye   iru karathil  pasangusathai    yenthi  ,
Arumbum  ila nakayum  , anbu thathumbum  malar  vizhikalum  ,
Yen   irumbu manam thanai  , kantham  poal eerthathamma.

You hold  a  bow of sugarcane , holding the five arrows of flowers,
You hold  with desire the  rope and goad  in  two of her  hands ,
And the light smile which appears  in you  and  your  flower like eyes full of  love  ,
Is attracting  and drawing  my iron mind  like   a magnet.

2.AAvahanam (To bring   the goddess  in to the object that   we worship)

Pada malar  chilambu olikka , pakshamudan vanthu   adiyen,
Idhayamalar  peedam  thannil  irunthu arul   cheivaaye  ,
Udhaya   ravi  pondra  unthan udal oliyaal  ,
Yen madham yenum irul agaththi , magizhnthennai  kaappate.

With the anklets  in your  flower  leg jingling, With partiality ,
Please come  and sit on my  seat of the mind  and shower your grace,
And using  the light   of your body which resembles the sun at dawn,
Please remove the darkness  like pride from me and protect me  with joy.

3.Aasanam ( Offering a seat to the  Goddess)

Sirasenum sripurathil  Chinthamani grahathul,
Aravindha idhazhkal aayirm konda,

Aranudan  iykymai   amarntharulvaal thaaye

In Sripura which is the head, inside  the Chithamani house ,
On the throne  called   Sri Chakra  ,
Which has one thousand   petals ,
Merging   with Lord shiva  , the mother  would take  her seat.

Oh Mother I gave  you the holy water of Ganges to wash  your feet,
