She who sits on a lotus, she who has very broad hips,
She who has eyes like lotus leaf,
She has a majestic belly button, She who is bent by heavy breasts,
She who wears clean cloths,
She who is Lakshmi, who is being sprinkled water from golden pots
by the divine elephants,
And she who daily has lotus like hands, may live in my house
for giving auspicious things.
