\chapter{Translation}
OM
`Śrīrāmajayam'
`OM sadguruśrītyāgarājasvāmine namo namaḥ |'

`|| Śrī Sarasvatī Mānasa Pūjā ||'

`OM' - `sarasvatyai ca vidmahe | manassthāyai ca dhīmahi | tanno vākśrīḥ pracodayāt |'

1.  `Sarasvatī' ! Supreme Knowledge personified! Illumining knowledge within; Established on the swan of the pure mind, resplendent in the white garments of pure expressions of this mind!
2.  `Vāṇi' ! ornamented by these thoughts, of the auspicious Form of the voice of this mind; sung in the garden of this mind; the Presence in the `nāda' of this mind!
3.  Perspicuous in the  `vīṇā' and `taṃburā'; abiding in the auspicious expressions of this song of the mind; Mother, the Repose of the `vīṇā' of this mind; playing sweetly the `vīṇā' of this mind.
4.  The Aupicious! anointed in the contemplation of this mind; my Mother! fused in this mind! Mother! worshipped by the flower of this mind! of Form entirely this mind!
5.  Removing mental suffering and afflictions; the Resplendent Light smiling in this mind; Mother, the `Śruti' for this song of the mind; sweetly sounding in this song of the mind!
6.  The Form that sparkles in the lamp of this mind; adored by `nīrājana' in the mind; `Vāgdevi', filling this mind, offered worship in the mind!
7.  Mother! adored by these thoughts; enjoying the whole hearted worship by these thoughts; Mother, offered the hearty song of this mind; Mother, celebrated in this mind!
8.  `Devi Sarasvatī', in the temple of these thoughts; please accept my offering! All my faults should be forgiven! Grant me the succour of Thy Feet!
9.  Auspicious `Vāgdevī' ! Auspiciousness unto Thee! Auspiciousness unto Thee, `Sarasvatī' ! `Devi' ! in this temple of flowers of the mind (thoughts)! Auspiciousness unto Thee, the Perfect One in this mind!
10.  This song and worship in the mind, offered by Pushpa, disciple of `Tyāgarāja Gurusvāmi', is very dear to Goddess `Sarasvatī'.
11.  This child's prattle of a `stotram' is dear to the `Guru', leads to  excellent eloquence;  leads to true knowledge, the grace of `Vāṇi', brings about the blessings of `Vāgdevī'.

`OM'
`Śubhamastu'
