May Mother Saraswati protect me—She who is fair like the jasmine blossom, the moon, and the garland of frost; who is draped in pristine white; whose hands are adorned with the Veena and the boon-giving staff; who is seated upon a white lotus; who is ever adored by Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, and other gods; and who completely removes all lethargy and ignorance of the mind.
