MEANING:

Oh Mother! Who is delighted with the music of instruments like veeNaa, bhEri, and vENu. Please protect me.
Who is praised by celestials like GhONeevadanaa - Vaaraahi, etc. for her worshipful conduct. She transcends three guNas - satva, rajas, and tamas and is revered by Brahma and Guruguha. Her eyes are like those of the dove and She absolves sins. She is the sister of the lord of Lakshmi and has a slender waist.
