Rathna simmasanaththil amarnthu arputha darisanam tharupavaLe

Paasam ankusam karumbu villai kaiyil Enthi iruppavaLe

Inthiraani deva maatharkaL chaamaram veesa alaimakaL kalaimakaL udan kaatchi tharupavaLe

Vaira keereedam sempavazha thodu muththu mookuththi

Sokka thangaththil maarbil aabaranankaL jolikka

Kaalil silambu kolusu aNinthu aananthamaya darisanam tharupavaLe

Sanku Chakra kathaa dhaari mukunthanin sodhariye,

Sambu manohariye

Mallikai mullai manthaaram thaazhamboo thaamarai

Champaka malar maalaikaLai aNipavaLe

Kathamba vana vaasiniye, en hrudhaya kovilil amarnthavaLe

Manthahaasa punnagai mukaththodu enai kadaakshippavaLe

Sankari, Saambavi, Chandra kalaadhari, Sidhroopi ena pala

peyarkaLai kondavaLe

Sri Raaja Raajeswari, en annaiye en manakovilil thangi

sathaa enai rakshithiduvaayammaa

 

 

She who sits on a gem studded throne  and grants wonderful  sight

Who holds rope  , goad and sugarcane bow  in her hands

She who appears with  Lakshmi and Saraswathi with  deva  maidens and Indra’s wife fanning you

She who is with Diamond  crown, red coral   ear stud, pearl  nose stud,

With  necklace  of pure gold  decorating  and shining on  her  chest,

And wearing  anklet and silver chain on her leg , appearing  with joy

She who is  Sister of Mukunda   holding conch  , wheel and mace

She who steals the  mind of lord Shiva

She  who wears  garlands of Jasmine, chrysanthymum , madaara  , pandanus

Champaka   flowers

She who smells of  boquat  forest, She who sis on my  heart  as temple

She who looks at me with a  budding   smile

Wife of Sankara , Wife of Shambu, she who wears  crescent of moon,

She who has divine form, she who has several names like  this

Oh Rajarajeswari, my mother please  live in the temple of mind,

And please  provide   protection to me
