Study note
Word breakdown
- चलत्कुण्डलां ते भ्रमद्भृङ्गवृन्दां
- Your swaying earrings like swarms of circling bees,
- घनस्निग्धधम्मिल्लभूषोज्ज्वलन्तीम्
- shining with thick, glossy braided hair,
- स्फुरन्मौलिमाणिक्यमध्येन्दुरेखा
- with a moon-line on the flashing ruby crest,
- विलासोल्लसद्दिव्यमूर्धानमीडे
- I praise your divine crown playful with splendour.
The crown where moon and ruby meet is the summit of the inner ascent. Worship at the head completes the journey from the lotus feet to the thousand-petalled seat where Shakti unites with Shiva.
