O' Ma, Uma! O' Queen of universe!
In gloom, by thirst oppressed so much, we are!
Oh shower Ma, oh shower Ma, on us,
thine smile-moonbeams, dewy with Ruth-nectar.
O' Ma, Uma; O' ageless, birthless force
flowing through everything in universe;
perceivable are thou, through thoughts above
the earthly dimensions! To thee I bow!
O' Ma, Uma, for deeper noesis
you're aureole shrouding the Almighty;
for mortal eyes you're human; Hymavathi;
yet well realized as Kundalini by Yogis.
