Hay Shaaraday Maa

Chorus:

Hay Shaaraday Maa, Hay Shaaraday Maa
Agyaanataa say hamayn taaraday Maa.
 

Tu svara kee dayvi yay sangeeta tujhasay
Hara shabda tayraa hai hara geeta tujhasay
Hama hain akaylay hama hain adhooray
Tayree sharana hama hamayn pyaara day Maa
 

Muniyon nay samajhee guniyon nay jaanee
Vaydon kee bhaashaa Puraanon kee vaanee
Hama bhee tu samajhayn hama bhee tu jaanayn

Vidyaa kaa hamako adhikaara day Ma
 

Tu shvayta varanee kamala par viraajay
Haathon may veenaa mukuta sara pay saajay
Mana say hamaaray mitaatay andhayray
Hamako ujaalo kaa sansaara day Maa

Translation:
O Mother Saraswatee, please remove my ignorance.
You are the Goddess of sounds.
All melodies emanate from You.
All speech is Yours.
I am alone and incomplete.
I seek refuge at Your feet.
Please grant me Your love and blessings.
The saints and righteous ones understand and know You.
You are the language of the Vedas and the words of the Puraanas.
May You understand and know us as well.
O Mother, please give me the privilege to also obtain that knowledge.
You are dressed in white and the lotus flower is Your throne.
In Your hand is the veenaa and on Your head lies a magnificent crown.
O Mother, destroy the darkness of my mind and bestow upon me the
light of knowledge.
