I sing to you

The song I have learned

The mantra that saw many generations

Words in Your praise

I sing in devotion.

I sing to you

Today the song that I feel deep within

Never heard before phrases but a mantra,

Words thanking you and meant only for You

I sing in devotion.

I sing to the Goddess of knowledge.

*On the occasion of Vijaydashmi festival. In the Southern state of India, Kerala, Vijaydasmi is considered an auspicious day for initiation of learning.
