Word breakdown

गणेशैर्ग्रहैरम्ब नक्षत्रपङ्क्त्या
With Ganesha, planets, nakshatra rows,
तथा योगिनीराशिपीठैरभिन्नम् ।
and yogini signs and pithas, inseparable,
महाकालमात्मानमामृश्य लोकं
touching great Time as your very Self,
विधत्से कृतिं वा स्थितिं वा महेशि
you ordain creation or preservation, O Great Queen.

She is not separate from Ganesha, planets, nakshatras, or the yogini pithas; as Mahakala herself she governs creation and preservation. The cosmos is her body, not a foreign realm the Self must flee.
