I was also taught the same by my teacher as

shrI sarasvati. rAgA: Arabhi. tALA: rUpaka.

P: shrI sarasvati namOstutE (varadE) paradEvatE shrIpati gaurIpati guruguha vinutE vidhiyuvatE
C: vAsanAtraya vivarjita varamuni bhAvita mUrtE vAsavAdyakhila
nirjara vara vitaraNa bahukIrtE dharahAsa mukhAmburuhE adbhuta
caraNAmburuhE samsAra bhItyApahE sakala mantrAkSara guhE

Execept a small word added as "dharahAsa yuta mukhAmburuhE"


It is a wonderful krithi!

[Sudhaama]

I agree with 'sarithasai"...

... that oneSupplementary word ... "DHARAHAASA-YUTHA"... in between, I too was taught.

The song is KaaLi stothiram by Mahakavi Subramanya Bharathi. It is

Yaadhumaagi nindraai kaaLi engum nee niraindhaai

It has five more stanzas.
