At dawn I remember the lotus face of Lalita: lips red as the bimba fruit, nose bright with a large pearl, eyes stretching to her ears, rich jewelled earrings, a gentle smile, and a forehead glowing with musk.

At dawn I bow to Lalita’s lotus feet, always ready to grant devotees their wishes, a boat across the ocean of worldly life, worshipped by Brahma and the chiefs of the gods, marked with the lotus, goad, banner and discus.

At dawn I praise Lalita Bhavani, the supreme power of Shiva, whose glory is known through the Upanishads, flawless in compassion, the cause of the world’s creation, preservation and dissolution, queen of all knowledge, far beyond scripture, speech and mind.

At dawn, O Lalita, I speak your holy names aloud: Kameshvari, Kamala, Maheshvari, Shambhavi, Mother of the worlds, the Supreme, Goddess of speech, and Tripureshvari.
