A twisted flow of short verbs and callouts.. Starting line addressing Maya, and the other lines glorifying Devi. The shortest class of verbs and that too rhyming have been beautifully used.
First person and Second person..
I meditate sing ध्याये गाये and You protect पाहि.. याहि.. देहि..
And the rhyming callouts ध्येये, गेये, उपाये! पेये! सरस-काये! रस-काये! सकाये! आये!
And other adverbs like एहि, काहि
माये! त्वं ‘याहि’.. मां बाधितुं काहि?
O Maya ‘go away’. Why are you obstructing me?
“ध्याये” ध्येये!
I “meditate”.. O one worthy of meditation!
त्वमेहि मुदं ‘देहि’.. मां ‘पाहि’
Right here, you ‘give me’ bliss.. ‘protect’ me.
~
“गाये” गेये !
I “sing” .. O one worthy of being sung!
या हि का हि
You are indeed Contemplation and Saraswati?? [Know of ‘ka’ beeja mantra of creativity and Brahma]
एहि ‘देहि’ ‘पाहि’
Here ‘give me’ [grace].. ‘protect me’
~
उपाये! पेये! सरस-काये! रस-काये! सकाये! आये!
O means!
O one to be relished!
O charming one!
O embodiment of rasa!
समुदाये! गुरु-गुहोदये! सुधा-तरङ्गिणि! अन्तरङ्गिणि!
O aggregate of everything!
O one who gives birth to guru guha!
O river of nectar!
O who rules in the heart!
Lyrics
पल्लवि
माये त्वं याहि मां बाधितुं काहि
अनुपल्लवि
ध्याये ध्येये त्वमेहि मुदं देहि मां पाहि
चरणम्गा
ये गेये याहि काहि एहि देहि पाहि
उपाये पेये सरस काये रस काये सकाये आये
समुदाये गुरु गुहोदये सुधा तरङ्गिणि अन्तरङ्गिणि
