वि श्रयन्तामुर्विया हूयमाना द्वारो देवीः सुप्रायणा नमोभिः । व्यचस्वतीर्वि प्रथन्तामजुर्या वर्णं पुनाना यशसं सुवीरम् ॥

ví śrayantām urviyā́ hū́yamānā dvā́ro devī́ḥ suprāyaṇā́ namóbhīḥ | vyácasvatīr ví prathantām ajuryā́ varṇáṃ punānā́ yaśásaṃ su-vī́ram ||

നമസ്കാരങ്ങളാൽ ആഹ്വാനിക്കപ്പെട്ട, വിശാലതയിൽ വിരിയുന്ന ദേവീ ദ്വാരങ്ങൾ—സുപ്രായണാ—വ്യാപകമായി തുറക്കട്ടെ. വ്യചസ്വതീ, അജര്യാ—സ്വതന്ത്രാവകാശം നിറഞ്ഞവ—വിരിയട്ടെ; തങ്ങളുടെ ദീപ്ത വർണ്ണം ശുദ്ധീകരിച്ചു, യശസ്സും സുവീരതയും കൊണ്ടുവരട്ടെ.
