My (“maam”) obeisances (“paahi”) to the goddess Raja Rajeshwari, who is the kind one (“krupakari”) and the wife of Shankara (“shankari”). She is the one who bestows (“dehi”) unsurpassed happiness (“ehi sukham”). She is the one who rides (“vahini”) on a lion (“simha”). She is a river of kindness, and the enchanting one. She is the one who destroyed (“khandani”) the demons: Bhanda, Chanda, Munda and Mahisha. She is the entertaining one (“Ranjani”) and the spotless one (“Niranjani”). She is the one who takes care (“poshani”) of the learned “guhadaasa” (the composer). She has sweet (“su”) voice and speech (“bhashini”). She is the one who defeats (“bheeshani”) enemies (“ripu”)  and grants (“bhushani”) boons (“vara”).
