Her hair in a single braid, hibiscus at Her ears, unclothed, riding a donkey;
लम्बोष्ठी कर्णिकाकर्णी तैलाभ्यक्तशरीरिणी॥
lamboṣṭhī karṇikākarṇī tailābhyaktaśarīriṇī.
long-lipped, with rings in Her ears, Her body anointed with oil;
वामपादोल्लसल्लोहलताकण्टकभूषणा।
vāmapādollasallohalatākaṇṭakabhūṣaṇā.
on Her left foot a gleaming ornament of iron thorns;
वर्धनमूर्धध्वजा कृष्णा कालरात्रिर्भयङ्करी॥
vardhanamūrdhadhvajā kr̥ṣṇā kālarātrirbhayaṅkarī.
dark, Her banner raised high: Kalaratri, who strikes fear.
