O Daughter of Heaven,
Luxuriating in Dreams,
Beloved Deity Great,
O Mighty Goddess of Wisdom !
Swarga Nandini, Swapna Viharini,
Ishta Devate Saraswate !
Thou exist as Swara in tongue,
As Nada in the strings of instruments musical,
Be the grand words of Poetry,
In the Pen and bless us !
Swaramay Naavil, Nadamay Tantriyil,
Padamay Thoovalil Vanaruluka Nee
Vaneemani, Varadayini
Swarga Nandini, Swapna Viharini,
Ishta Devate Saraswate !
Thou art the Raaga, Thou art the Taaala,
Bhava Sruti and Laya Thou art !
In this Mighty Art before whom even Time bows,
May I get the Laurel, by Thy Grace !
Raagavum Neeye, Taalavum Neeye.
Bhavavum Layavum Sruthiyum Neeye
Kalam Namikkum Keli Kalayil,
Kanikayam Njanam swara maniyenam
Vaneemani, Varadayini
Swarga Nandini, Swapna Viharini,
Ishta Devate Saraswate !
