उमामहेश्वरौ देवौ सर्वकामसुखप्रदौ । गृह्णीतामर्घ्यमेतं मे दयां कृत्वा महत्तमाम्
umāmaheśvarau devau sarvakāmasukhapradau | gṛhṇītāmarghyametaṃ me dayāṃ kṛtvā mahattamām
ஓ தேவியான உமா, ஓ மகேஸ்வர தேவா, நீங்கள் எல்லா விருப்பங்களுக்கும் இன்பம் அளிப்பவர்கள்; மிகுந்த கருணை செய்து என் இந்த அர்க்யத்தை ஏற்றருளுங்கள்.
