Kartikeya, Kartikeya!
Riding the majestic peacock.
Kartikeya, O Kartikeya!
The commander-in-chief of the army of Devas!

Red like the sun, Mangala your embodiment
The fighter who knew the meaning of Om
A, U and M blending in with the silent existence
You had known the creation since your birth!

Kartikeya, Kartikeya!
The one whom Shiva gave the place of a Guru
Kartikeya, Kartikeya!
You are the greatest teacher!

The son of Shakti, her ansh and light
The beautiful boy loving towards the Ganapati, little yet brimming with might
The husband of Devasena, the Devasenapati
Kartikeya, Kartikeya, the mighty warrior in front of me!

Kartikeya, Kartikeya, the lord of Krittika
Kartikeya, Kartikeya, the one who came to my dream!
Kartikeya, Kartikeya, in a white serene attire
Kartikeya, Kartikeya, Mangala sings to me!
