Meaning

Oh! Daughter of the mountain!  Kindly protect me.  Your face resembles the full moon.
You reside on the banks of the Vahini river and you ride on the lion.  You destroyed the clan of demons.
You are worshiped by Indra.  Your bosoms are like the forehead of a youthful elephant.   You are born from the fire of the third eyes of Siva.  Your excellence is infinite. 
Your eyes are like the lotus petals.  You are gentle and moderate in your speech. The beauty of your gait rivals the swaying of the most beautiful elephant.
Your beautiful forehead, framed by tremulous curls, is adorned with Tilaka.  Crescent moon adorns your tresses.  You are worshiped by the kings of Vanci Nadu - Tiruvananthapuram.  You give prosperity to their dynasty.  You are the abode of excellencies.  Kindly accept my hymns.

Protect me Pankajanabha!  You shine like a water-bearing cloud.
Your speech is soft and mellifluous.  The enemy of serpents Garuda is your vehicle, you are the bestower of boons and self-restraint is your great ornament.  Please bestow on me great prosperity, with my well-being in mind and with your infinite compassion.  You removed the obstacles of celestials' you recline on the serpent and your eyes are like the lotus.
You allayed the fear of king elephant;  you are adorned in golden raiment.  Your adorn conch and discuss in your hands.  By holding aloft the mountain, you subdued the pride of Indra.  You bestow auspiciousness to your devotees, as well as, refuge to celestials and sages.  You are the remover of the dance fear caused by the cycle of birth and death and the giver of happiness.  You are the lord of the universe and praised by Mahesa Siva.
Your form excels the beauty of Cupid, you wear star-like bracelets, you generate happiness in the virtuous devotees.  Your visage, adorning with Kaustubha jewel is peerless. Oh lord of celestials! your virtues are praised by a group of sages like Sanka, Bhrgu, and others;  your feet resemble; lotus, sun, and the moon are your eyes, and you held aloft the great mountain.
You are the consort of Sri Lakshmi, you wield the bows called Karmuka and Sarnga.  You destroyed the pride of demon Kaitabha.  Your glory is sung the world over, you are majestic like the ocean.  You reside in sacred Syanandurapura.  Your lotus feet are like fire in burning the sins of your devotees.  Your nose resembles a sesame flower and your smile reminds the jasmine.
