Katinnu Katayi Lyrics

O mother who shines as the Ear of the ear, Mind of the mind, and Eye of the eye, Thou art the Life of life and Thy Being is the Life of the living
As the ocean is to the waves, Thou art the Soul of souls.
Thou art the Nectar of the nectar of knowledge, O Mother.
The Pearl of the Immortal Self art Thou and the Essence of Bliss.
Thou art the Great Maya (Illusion) and the Absolute Itself.
Neither can the eyes reach Thee nor the mind grasp Thee.
Words are hushed in Thy Presence, O Mother.
Those who say they have seen Thee have not really done so, as Thou, O Great Goddess, art beyond the intellect.
The sun, moon and stars shine not of themselves but are illuminated by Thy Brilliance.
Through discrimination the courageous one alone can treat on the path to the Abode of Eternal Peace, the Supreme Truth.
