Word breakdown
- मणिस्यूतताटङ्कशोणास्यबिम्बां
- With gem-studded earrings, red bimba lips,
- हरित्पट्टवस्त्रां त्वगुल्लासिभूषाम् ।
- green silk garment, radiant ornament on skin,
- हृदा भावयंस्तप्तहेमप्रभां त्वां
- meditating in the heart on you, glowing like heated gold,
- श्रियो नाशयत्यम्ब चाञ्चल्यभावम्
- O Mother, one destroys even Lakshmi's fickleness.
Meditation on her golden form steadies the mind that otherwise chases flickering fortune. Steadfastness in the heart-lotus replaces the restlessness that mistakes the mutable for the real.
