O my
Goddess, Mistress of the Dance and Mother of Creation,
I give
thanks to you for this food
Which is your body, sacrificed for me.
I pray that
it will bring pleasure to my tongue
And
nourishment to my cells,
That I may be the instrument of your labor.
Be my
strength on this day, as on all days,
And when my
work here is complete,
Let me feed
you, Kali, as you have fed me.
Blessed be.
