Pallavi:
O Annapoorna, with large eyes,
Who is the witness to the worlds, Who glances [prosperity]! Protect me.||1||
Anupallavi:
O Annapoorna, Who sits on
the edge of highest throne, Who is the root of the word OM, Who
eradicates difficulties and other hindrances, Who is adorned with gems
fallen (found) on mountains, Who is timeless, and Who is more
resplendent that Vishnu and Shiv! Protect me.||1||
Carana:
O Annapoorna, Who holds a
jewel-studded pot filled with milk and grains, and a golden ladle in the
hands, Who is deft in nourishing those born from the body, Who is
adorned by gold-decorated apparel, Who is served by a lotus seat among
others, Who is revered by celestial bard Tumburu and Narada among
others, Who is beyond the three qualities and liberates us from the
ocean of metempsychosis, Who is adorned by these three cantos written by
Guruguha! Protect me.||1||
Poet: Muttusvami Dikshitar (Guruguha)
