दिव्यसुधाकरवदने कुन्दोज्ज्वलरदने

पदनखनिर्जितमदने मधुकैटभकदने ।

विकसितपञ्कजनयने पन्नगपतिशयने

खगपतिवहने गहने सङ्कटवनदहने ॥ २॥

Divya sudhakara  vadhane, kundhojjwala radhane,

Oh goddess  who has divine  necatr like face, Who has  shining jasmine like teeth,

Whose nails of feet and hand win over  God of love, Who killed  Madhu and Kaidabha,

Who travels on king of birds, who is dense  and burns off the   forest  of sorrows

छित्त्वा राहुग्रीवां पासि त्वं विबुधान्

ददासि मृत्युमनिष्टं पीयूषं विबुधान्।

विहरसि दानवऋद्धान् समरे संसिद्धान्

मध्वमुनीश्वरवरदे पालय संसिद्धान् ॥ ४॥

Chithwaa  Rahu greevaa paasi thwam  vibhudhaan,

Madhwa  muneeswara  Varadhe palaya  samsidhan

By cutting off the neck of Rahu    you saved all the devas,

And you gave the nectar   that would prevent bad   death to them,

You accepted   the wrath of asuras and  was ready for a battle,
