Now I shall worship Vedamātā (Mother of the Vedas), Śrī Śāradā, daughter of Brahman (brahma-sutā), the root of speech (śabda-mūla), the deity of speech (vāg-devatā), the Great Māyā (mahā-māyā).

The reasoning of the path to ultimate truth (paramārtha-mārga-vicāra) — she sorts it out, showing essence and non-essence (sāra-asāra); she makes one reach the far shore of the ocean of becoming (bhava-sindhu paila-pāra) — by the force of word (śabda-bala).

aisī bahu-veṣẽ naṭalī | māyā śāradā yekalī | siddhaci antarī sañcalī | catur-vidhā prakārẽ

Thus she adorns herself in many forms; māyā and Śāradā are one; being already established, she abides within — in the four kinds (catur-vidhā — the four levels of speech: parā, paśyantī, madhyamā, vaikharī).

तींहीं वाचा अंतरीं आलें । तें वैखरिया प्रगट केलें । म्हणौन कर्तुत्व जितुकें जालें । तें शारदागुणें

Whatever entered the three inner speech-levels (parā, paśyantī, madhyamā), vaikharī (the fourth, articulated) made it manifest. Therefore, whatever agency (kartṛtva) has come about — that is by the power of Śāradā.

je veda-śāstrā̃cī mahimā | je niropamācī upamā | jayekaritā̃ paramātmā | aisẽ bolije

She who is the glory (mahimā) of the Vedas and śāstras; the simile of the incomparable (niropama-upamā); for whose sake even the name Paramātmā is spoken.

nānā vidyā kaḷā siddhī | nānā niścayācī buddhī | je sūkṣma vastūcī śuddhī | jñeptī-mātra

The many sciences, arts, and accomplishments (vidyā-kalā-siddhi); the intellect of many certainties (niścaya-buddhi); she who is the clarity of the subtle object (sūkṣma-vastu-śuddhi) — mere cognition itself (jñapti-mātra).

She who is the innermost devotion (nija-bhakti) of Hari-devotees; the inner state (antara-sthiti) of those fixed inwardly (antara-niṣṭha); the liberation (mukti) of the liberated-in-life (jīvan-mukta) — that very sāyojyatā (merger-unity).

जे अनंत माया वैष्णवी । न कळे नाटक लाघवी । जे थोराथोरासी गोवी । जाणपणें

je ananta māyā vaiṣṇavī | na kaḷe nāṭaka lāghavī | je thorā-thorāsī govī | jāṇa-paṇẽ

She who is the boundless Vaiṣṇavī-māyā; whose graceful drama (nāṭaka-lāghavī) is not understood; she who ensnares even the very greatest — precisely through their knowing-ness (jāṇa-paṇa).

जें जें दृष्टीनें देखिलें । जें जें शब्दें वोळखिलें । जें जें मनास भासलें । तितुकें रूप जयेचें

jẽ jẽ dṛṣṭīnẽ dekhilẽ | jẽ jẽ śabdẽ voḷakhilẽ | jẽ jẽ manāsa bhāsalẽ | titukẽ rūpa jayecẽ

Praise, worship, devotion, feeling (stavana-bhajana-bhakti-bhāva) — without māyā there is no place for them. The intent (abhiprāya) of this utterance — only the experienced ones (anubhavī) know.

म्हणौनी थोराहुनि थोर । जे ईश्वराचा ईश्वर । तयेसी माझा नमस्कार । तदांशेंचि आतां
