Meaning:
She, who is as fair as the Kunda flower, white as the moon, and a garland of Tushar flowers; and who is covered in white clothes!
She, whose hands are adorned by the excellent veena, and whose seat is the pure white lotus;
She, who is praised by Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh; and prayed to by the Devas. O! Mother Goddess, remove my mental inertia!
