“O Devi Mahalakshmi, who knowest all,
the giver of intelligence and success and of worldly enjoyment and liberation as well. Thou hast always the mystic symbols as Thy form, O Goddess, O Mahalakshmi, my eternal obeisance to Thee.
O Devi Mahalakshmi, known as Maheshvari, O Thou without a beginning or an end. O primeval energy born of Yoga, O Mahalakshmi, my eternal obeisance to Thee.
O Devi Mahalakshmi, seated on the Lotus. Thou who art the embodied essence of the Supreme Brahman. O Great Lord and Divine Mother of the universe. O Mahalakshmi, my eternal obeisance to thee.
