Meaning: This is one of the most popularly sung lyrics of Shri Muthuswami Dikshitar in praise of the Goddess Durga. This kriti is like performing naamarchana of the Goddess i.e., praising her in various forms about her appearance as seen by the devotee. All the superlative adjectives are used, yes who else will be eligible for such objectives except the Lord. The anupallavi and the second part of the charanam are sung in higher tempo.
