Ya kundendu tusharahara dhavala, Ya shubravastravrita

Ya veena varadanda mandita kara, Ya shvetapadmasana

Ya-Brahma-chyuta-shankar-prabhritibhir, Devayeh-sada-vandita,

Sa-mam-patu-saraswati-bhagwati,Nihshesha-jadyapaha

Fair as a jasmine flower, the moon or a flake of snow, dressed in white,

Her hands adorned by the graceful veena staff, seated on a white lotus,

Adored by Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, and the other deities,

Protect me, Oh Goddess Saraswati, remover of ignorance inert.

Shuklam Brahmavichar sar, parmamadyam jagadvyapineem

Veena pustaka Dharaneem bhayadam jadyandhakarapham

haste sphatikmalikaam viddhateem padmasane sansthitaam

vande taam parmeshvareem bhagwateem budhiprada sharadaam

One who is white in complexion, who is the essence of Brahman, one who pervades the

universe, with Veena in one hand and the Vedas in the other, bestower of fearlessness,

and remover of ignorance, with a Mala in her hand, seated on a Lotus, the source of all

intellect, to that Mother Saraswati I bow down .
