মীনাক্ষী পঞ্চরত্নম্

অর্থ:I bow forever to Meenakshi, the ocean of compassion — whose splendour equals a thousand crore rising suns, radiant with armlets and necklaces, with lips red as the bimba fruit and a lovely smile of glistening teeth, adorned in yellow silk; whose feet are worshipped by Vishnu, Brahma and Indra, who is auspicious Shiva's consort and the very embodiment of Truth.

অর্থ:I bow forever to Meenakshi, the ocean of compassion — beautiful with a crown agleam with pearls, her face glowing like the full moon, wearing tinkling anklets set with jewelled bells, luminous as a lotus; the granter of every wish, daughter of the mountain, attended by Saraswati and Lakshmi.

অর্থ:I bow forever to Meenakshi, the ocean of compassion — who is Shri Vidya herself, dwelling on Shiva's left side, radiant with the Hrim-kara mantra, seated in the central bindu marked within the Sri Chakra, the gracious queen of the divine assembly; mother of six-faced Skanda and of Ganesha the lord of obstacles, the enchantress of all the worlds.

অর্থ:I bow forever to Meenakshi, the ocean of compassion — the lovely sovereign lady who removes fear, bestows knowledge and is utterly pure; of dark-blue lustre, her feet worshipped by lotus-seated Brahma, the younger sister of Narayana; delighting in the music of vina, flute and mridanga, the Mother in her many forms.

অর্থ:I bow forever to Meenakshi, the ocean of compassion — who dwells in the hearts of countless yogis and great sages, granting every kind of attainment; her pair of feet resplendent with many flowers, worshipped by Narayana himself; who is the embodiment of Nada-Brahman, higher than the highest, the very essence of all meanings and truths.
