Translation Poem:

Mother of immense grace and wisdom!
Authority in every art!
Education that develops by self-effort
And analysis at every stage!
And then the mastery in articulatory phonetics and oratory
Are resultant of thy grace and studies!
Pray to bless and protect the pundits
and linguists who retain
the ocean of variety of Sanskrit books and
the sweet Tamil wealth, rich in books
and delicious in taste by doing thus
contributing to the growth of the linguistic world!

Message:

The Mother, I pray you to bless me for the learning of all subjects and exercise mastery on all arts and science

Explanation:

The emphasis is on the mastery in any field and not just increasing the number of books in our possession
