You made me live without fading, with all colors intact, You gave me your precious grace, You existed like a spark of light – Is there any deficiency left for me? Kamakshi, who grants even the unattainable flower (of liberation).

O beautiful, elegant, eternal Goddess, and destroyer of all ills! You are Uma, who stands as a radiant flame. You remove all sorrows of those who come to see you on Fridays. You also take away the suffering of those who simply salute your feet in their thoughts.
