Translation
O charming-minded one, whose flute-like hand sounds conquer the cooing of ashamed cuckoos, delighting mountain groves with captivating tribal humming, filled with good qualities among great tribal women and beings, victory, victory to you, O slayer of Mahishasura, O beautiful one with matted hair, O daughter of the mountain.
