...having created the entire three worlds in that state due to the absence of Speech (Vak), the preceptor of the world, Brahma, feeling the lack of supremacy... (6)

...performed most difficult and excellent penance for ten thousand divine years. Then, at some point, Vani (Speech), adorned with all meanings, manifested. (7)

[She said:] I am the great knowledge (Mahavidya), the supreme sovereign of all speech. I shall instruct you on the most excellent thousand names of mine. (8)

Being constantly praised by you with this, I shall become your wife. The entire universe created by you shall become endowed with speech. (9)

This is the supreme secret, my thousand names. It pacifies the flood of all sins and bestows the great grace of Saraswati. (10)

It grants great poetic skill in the world and bestows the mastery of speech. Whether you or any other supreme person pleases me with this hymn... (11)

...I shall personally become their servant, there is no doubt. Saying this, Vani disappeared. From then on, the Grandfather (Brahma)... (12)

...having praised her with this divine hymn, attained her as his wife. And from then on, O sage, the entire universe became endowed with speech. (13)
