Summary :       This classical devotional hymn is an earnest adoration and supplication dedicated to the Divine Mother / Goddess Bhagavathy (revered as Varada, Jagajjanani, and Sri Jagadamba). The composition extols the Goddess's enchanting, radiant form adorned with vermilion and eyes brimming with nectar, celebrating Her as the redeemer who purifies all sins and grants eternal liberation. Praised as the compassionate sovereign governing the three worlds and worshipped by multitudes, the song forms a heartfelt prayer beseeching Her maternal grace and perpetual protection.

Pallavi : Protect me, please protect me, O bestower of boons, You who are possessed of auspicious deeds and virtues! Protect me, please protect me, O grantor of boons, of immaculate character!

Charanam-1 : O Devi glowing radiantly with sacred vermilion (kunkuma), endowed with an exquisitely tender and charming countenance, shining brilliantly with divine effulgence, whose gentle eyes overflow with the sweet nectar of immortality!

Charanam-2 : O Mother who brings supreme delight to Her faithful devotees, destroyer of all sins and worldly blemishes, bestower of ultimate spiritual liberation (mukti); glory to You, O Mother and creator of the universe!

Charanam-3 : O uplifter and redeemer of the cosmic universe, embodiment of supreme purity and sanctity, reverently served and adored by multitudes of beings, O Mother of all the worlds!

Charanam-4 : O boundless ocean of mercy and compassion, sovereign ruler of universal destiny and auspicious fortune, supreme empress of all the three worlds (tribhuvana), O auspicious Divine Mother Jagadamba!
