May Goddess Nilotpalamba be victorious, she who confers good fortune which is eternal and pure.
She effaces the primary ignorance and is the mother of Guruguha. She has the third eye on the forehead, and is the ancient one. She has long dark lustrous tresses resembling the black cobra, and is adored by Sarasvati.
She, the beloved of Lord Shivakameshvara the Shankari, is the originator of the essence of romance. She is the compassionate one, who holds the noose and the goad. She is skilled at giving the boon which cures the disease of Samsara. She is fascinated by the Raga Narayanagaula. Let my mind reflect upon She who bestows wisdom and liberation.
