Mantra to Goddess Matangi

Sirona

Hindu Wannabe
Dear forum,

could you provide the translation for the following chant for Goddess Matangi? With the help of Google, I figured out it might be in Hindi.

Jaya jaya Shyama roopini namaha
Veena vadini Varde namaha
Siddhi dayani Devi namaha
Jaya shri Matangi Devi namaha

I found every word besides varde / var de. Here's my preliminary translation:

Salutations to the One with a black form,
Salutations to the female musician who plays the veena,
Salutations to the Goddess who grants mystic powers
Salutations to Goddess Shri Matangi

Please correct me where I'm wrong. Thanks. :heart:

Veena vadini varade namah: Salutations to one holding the veena and can bestow boons.

She is considered to be the Tantric form of Sarasvati, the goddess of music and learning. Like Sarasvati, Matangi governs speech, music, knowledge and the arts. - Wikipedia
