A Microcosm's Prayer(Slokha) -29

Sloka, is the most common Sanskrit meter and is a descendant of the older Vedic gayatri The sloka, meaning 'song', although metric, is not considered poetic. It functions more as the equivalent to Western prose with lines and meter and is often used in narratives or epics. The defining features of the sloka are: stanzaic, written in any number of couplets made up of 2 hemistiches. The hemistiches can be broken into 4 lines or padas creating quatrains,4 lines or padas syllabic, either 2 lines of 16 syllables each or 4 hemistiches of 8 syllables each. metric, alternate hemistiches of trochaic and iambic patterns. The following verses are my own work, a prayer, based on the great slokha 'Lalitha Sahasranamam' where the meaningful thousand names of Adi Para Sakthi(primordial cosmic Energy) are narrated.These verses are not literal or exact translation of the slokha.But I referred to the translation of the great slokha by Mr.P. R. Ramachander (Please read the previous parts of this series before reading this) 85 Like that of the deer's are thine eyes So art thee known as Mrigakshi Who's temptingly fascinating Thou art so known as Mohini Thee who's the first and the foremost Art so known by the name Mukhya Wife of Mrida so'rt Mridani Who is the friend of everyone Bestowing happiness, so art Mithra roopini.Contentment...
