শাৰদা প্ৰাৰ্থন

Obeisance to Thee, O effulgent Sarada, worshipped in the City of Kashmir, I always beseech Thee to vouchsafe to me Pure Knowledge.

You are faith, memory, intelligence, the divinity of speech, the spouse of creator, Brahma. You grace the devotees speech, you are the bestower of inner peace, and all other excellences.

I bow down to Bhavani who is decorated with ear ornament studded with the flash of lightning, who is a river of nectar that cures the torments of worldly life.

Constant salutations to Thee, O Mother Beneficent! You are the stay of Veda and the auxillary branches of the Veda, of the Vedanta and all other forms of learning. Salutations to you, O Goddess of Learning

O Mother, You are the personification of Brahman. You are the supreme spirit, the light divine, the eternal being. You are the presiding deity in all branches of learning. Salutations to you, O Goddess of Learning.

But for you the whole world would appear lifeless. You are the presiding deity of knowledge. Salutations to you, O Goddess of Learning.

But for you the whole world would appear dumb and demented. You are the presiding deity of speech. Salutations to you, O Goddess of Speech.
