O Mother, Goddess Mahamayi...
I wept and prayed, please grant your grace!
O Mother, Goddess Mahamayi...
I wept and prayed, please grant your grace!
I have come begging with open hands,
only so my sacred thali (wedding thread) is saved!
O sweet nectar born in the snowy mountains,
O gentle deer resting at Lord Shiva's feet!
O Mother, Goddess Mahamayi...
I wept and prayed, please grant your grace!
Won't the weeping voice of your daughter-in-law
reach your divine ears?
For my dear son's life to be saved,
won't your grace come to our rescue?
Won't the weeping voice of your daughter-in-law
reach your divine ears?
For my dear son's life to be saved,
won't your grace come to our rescue?
If I am a mother who gave birth to one son,
aren't you a mother who gave birth to two?
If I am a mother who gave birth to one son,
aren't you a mother who gave birth to two?
If motherly love is universal to all motherhood,
aren't you a mother just like me?
Aren't you a mother just like me?
O Mother, Goddess Mahamayi...
I wept and prayed, please grant your grace!
You are the Goddess with a thousand eyes,
have they all turned blind?
If just one or two of your eyes open,
would your mercy diminish?
You are the Goddess with a thousand eyes,
have they all turned blind?
If just one or two of your eyes open,
would your mercy diminish?
You wed the youth who kicked away the God of Death,
you are that beautiful peacock!
That day, what struck him away was really
your toe-ring adorned foot, O Mother!
Without letting the flowers in my hair wither,
O Goddess with the trident, bless me!
Without letting the auspicious turmeric fade from my skin,
O Goddess Bhagavathi, bless me!
O Mother, Goddess Mahamayi...
I wept and prayed, please grant your grace!
In Tiruvannamalai,
O merciful Goddess seated as Unnamalai!
In Tiruvanaikaval, glowing as the light of wisdom,
O Goddess Akhilandeshwari!
In Tirukutralam, as Goddess Kuzhalvaimozhi,
O great treasure who dwells there!
Seated in all your majesty at sacred Kodungallur,
O graceful Goddess Bhagavathi!
In Namakkal you are Goddess Namagiri,
in Tirunelveli you are Goddess Gandhimathi!
In Nattarasankottai,
you are the Goddess Kannudaya Nayaki!
You who have a thousand holy names,
you who dwell in a thousand temples!
You who have a thousand holy names,
you who dwell in a thousand temples!
To save your husband's life,
you observed sacred fasts day after day!
To save your husband's life,
you observed sacred fasts day after day!
The one who stopped the morning sun
from rising was a woman too!
The one who reclaimed the life taken by the God of Death
and finished her quest was a woman too!
Performing penance in the midst of fire,
you too are a woman!
Praying for the wellbeing of her wedded husband,
I too am a woman!
Making my tears the sacred oil and my heart the sacred fire,
as a devoted wife, I have performed this sacrificial prayer!
Even if my husband has committed sins or bears curses,
can the snake dare to strike him past my devotion?
O Goddess Karumari in the form of a serpent,
will you come here and shower a rain of grace?
O Mother, I surrender completely at your holy feet!
Without you, who else is the refuge for this helpless woman?
Who else is my refuge? Who else is my refuge?
