Vaageswari Stavam

 1) Amala Kamaladhi Vaasini, Manaso,
Vaimaya Dhayini, Manogne,
Sundara Gathri, Susheele,
Thava Charanamboruhayo Namami Sadaa

I always worship your lotus feet,
Oh Goddess, who lives in pure white lotus flower,
Oh Goddess, who grants cleanliness of mind,
And Oh Goddess who is pretty and good natured.

2) Achalathmaja Cha Durga,
Kamala Tripurethi Bheditha Jagathi,
Yaa Saa Thwameva Vaachaa,
Meeswari, Sarvathmana Praseede Mama

By all known means, be pleased with me,
Oh Goddess, though you are called differently by the world,
As the daughter of mountain, as fearsome Durga,
As one who, lives on lotus and as the great Tripura,
You are the one and the same - the goddess of speech.

3) Twacharanamboruhayo,
Pranama Heena Punardwijathirapi,
Bhooyadanedamukha,
Sthwad Bhaktho Bhavathi Devi, Sarvagna

Hey Goddess, he who does not salute your lotus feet,
Even if he is a Brahmin, would become dumb and deaf,
In the births that he will take later,
And your devotee would become the all knowing one.

4) Mooladhara Mukhorgatha,
Bisa Thanthu Nibha Prabhavathaya,
Visruthalipi Pravatha Hitha,
Mukha Kara Charanadhike, Praseede Mama

Oh goddess, whose face, hands and legs,
Are the letters of alphabets, which have become enlarged,
Starting from the inside of Mooladhara,
By the power of sound shining like a thread of lotus

5) Varnathano Amrutha Varne,
Niyatha Nirvarnithepi Yogeendrai,
Nirneethikarana Dhoothe,
Varnayithum Devi, Dehi Samarthyam

Hey colourful holy goddess,
Hey Goddess who is as white as nectar,
Even sages great, cannot describe you properly,
And so Goddess, who is far-far away from any description,
Please make me capable of describing you.

6) Sasura Asura Mouli Lasa,
Nmani Prabha Deepithangri Nalina Yuge,
Sakalagama Swaroope,
Sakaleswari, Sannidhim Videhi Mayi

Shines due to the gems in the crowns of devas and asuras,
And who is personification of all Vedas and other holy books,
And who is the goddess of every one,
Please live within my heart

7) Pusthaka Japa Pata Hasthe,
Varadabhaya Chinha Charu Bahu Lathe,
Karpooramala Dehe,
Vageeswari, Shodhayasu Mama Chetha

Hey Goddess of Speech,
Who has in one hand the prayer beads bag,
Who shows protection and blessing by two hands,
And who is as white as the camphor,
Please clean fast my intellect

Whose face shines with the moonlight of her smile,
And in whom the pure happiness of the soul resides,

By prose and well written poems,

And who shines in the lotus mind of,
Sages who are experts in the knowledge of soul,
Kindly become pleased with me

Who has three faces,
Who has three forms of Lakshmi, Parvathi and Saraswathi,
Who lives as macro, micro and causal forms,
Whose feet is worshipped by all devas,
And who has a face shining with keen intellect,
Kindly become pleased with me

Hey Soul of Vedas,
Whose six parts of the body are,
Etymology, Astrology, grammar, rituals
Phonetics  and prosody,
Kindly become pleased with me.

Hrudayambuja Charu Ranga Natana Pare,
Bhagawathi, Bhava Bhanga Kareem,
Bhakthim Bhadrathadhe, Praseeda Mama

Oh goddess who is personification of intelligence,
Who likes to dance in the mind of the intellects,
Who is the goddess with all qualities,
Who grants all wishes,
Grant me devotion to you which would,
Destroy all fears to day today living

Oh goddess of the pure hearted,
To those who place their heart in thine lotus like feet,
Bad qualities and dirty thoughts do not happen,
And so please help me to have utmost devotion,
In thine lotus feet and be pleased with me.

14) Vaageesi Stham Mithiyo,
Japarchanaaha Vana Vrutheeshuprajapeth,
Sathu Vimala Chitha Vruthir,
Ddehapadhi Nithya Shudha Methi Padam

He who chants this ode to the goddess of words,
During the time of meditation, worship and sacrifice,
He would attain clear pure mindedness,
And reach the perennial pure bliss.
