English Translation
"May
Goddess Saraswati, who is fair like the jasmine-colored moon, and whose pure
white garland is like frosty dew drops; who is adorned in radiant white attire,
on whose beautiful arm rests the veena, and whose throne is a white lotus; who
is surrounded and respected by the Gods, protect me. May you fully remove my
lethargy, sluggishness, and ignorance."
