This is the Great Sloka chanted by Savithri to save the life of her husband Sathyavaan, addressed to Goddess Saraswathi. This sloka is recited for 108 times during the Karadaiyan Fasting Period for giving strength to our mangalyam. This is also practising the everyday prayer of married women after the bath every day for good life.
"Omkaara poorvikae daevi veenaa pusthaka dharinee
Vaedamaathaah namasthubhyam avaidhavyam prayachchamae!
Pathivrathae mahaabhaagae bharthushcha priyavaadinee
Avaidhavyam cha soubhaagyam daehitvam mama suvr(au)thae
Puthraan pouthraanscha soukyam cha soumangalyam daehimae !"
Meaning:
Oh, Goddess with "Om” prefixed to her name, who holds the Veena and the book,
I salute you oh mother of Vedas, please grant me the absence of widowhood!
Oh, Goddess who is dedicated to her husband, oh lucky one, who tells words that pleases her husband and who has made virtue her penance,
You please grant me absence of widowhood and all-round prosperity,
And also, sons, grandsons, pleasant life and auspicious state!
