Meaning: (www.sangeetham.com)

This kriti is on the presiding Goddess at the Big Temple in Tanjavur. This kriti is set to the 57th melakarta that is now called Simhendramadhyamam, but was known to Dikshitar as sumadyuti

O Protector (“paalini”) of the helpless (“pamara-jana”)! Goddess of the enormous (“bruhann”) form (“naayaki”)! Protect me (“paahi”)!

Giver (“daayini”) of all desired (“kaamithaartha”) boons (“phala”)! One who rains (“vaahini”) the nectar (“amruta”) of compassion (“kaarunya”)! Residing (“nivaasini”) in the hearts (“hrudaya”) of those who are soft (“komala”) natured! One who shines (“prakaashini”) as Subrahmanya’s (“guruguha”) intellect (“mati”)! Goddess (“seemanthini”) ! Worshipped (“nata”) by Mantrini! Enchantress (“ranjani”) of Mahadeva!
