Saluted by scholars, depended upon by the wise,
Oh mother Sharada, please shower your grace

Mathi vararchithe, kuru krupaam Shive

She who broadens and purifies wisdom,
Oh Goddess who blesses with wisdom,
Oh Consort of Shiva, please show your mercy

Yadhi thu they krupaa, sa thu sukhee bhaveth.

Teacher of pure knowledge, One who gives true comfort,
If I get your blessings then I would be really happy.

The pure knowledge always and for ever.

And promote in me the divine pure knowledge

Jagathi visthrutham, kuru dhayanvithe

Make your auspicious pure form shine,
Throughout the world, Oh merciful mother.

Thimira haraka, santhu budha janaa

Due to your mercy, the ignorant of the world,
Are cured of their blindness by wise people.

Janani thwam sadaa, nivasa jnanadhe

Destroyer of bad thoughts, in this place of pure ones,
You mother should always stay and help us all.

9. Jayathu jayathu nithyam sarada veda mathaa,
Jayathu jayathu devi jnanadha mokshadhaa cha
Jayathu jayathu yaa sri sarva devairupaasya,
Jayathu jayathu nithya BHarathi chithswaroopa

Victory and victory daily to Sharada, the mother of Vedas,
Victory and victory to the goddess who grants wisdom and salvation,
Victory and victory to all those devotees of the Goddess,
Victory and victory to the Goddess with perennial divine form.

Srimath Paramahamsa parivrujacharya sadguru bhagwathaa,
Sridhara swami mana virachitham sri Saradha stotram sampoornam.
