P: shrI cakrarAja nilayE shivashakti aikyarUpiNi
A: pAshAnkusha bANEkShu daNDa bEsha kalAdhari pAhi pAhi
C: asurakula nAshini shrIsha kEshava sahajAmini iShaguNa gAna tOSiNi kOshAntara stita pOSaNI

Here is my attempt:

shrI cakrarAja nilayE - O One whose abode is the Sri Chakra!
shivashakti aikyarUpiNi - O One who is Shiva and Shakti together!

pAshAnkusha bANEkShu daNDa bEsha kalAdhari - O One who bears the noose, goad, (flower) arrows and sugarcane bow and the crescent moon!

pAhi pAhi - Protect (me)!Protect (me)!

asurakula nAshini - O Destroyer of the clan of Asuras!
shrIsha kEshava sahajAmini - O Sister of Kesava, Lord of Lakshmi!
iShaguNa gAna tOSiNi - O One pleased with the singing of Shiva's qualities!
kOshAntara stita pOSaNI - O One who nourishes (all), residing within the five sheaths ( physical, psychological etc)

Corrections welcome!

Cannot think of any alternative wording. Aalaasini , to my knowledge , does not mean anything.

Maybe others can help.

Rajaniji,
if it can be read as *aalapini* it means *lute*.
And if it can be read as*aahladini* it means
*a lady in a joyous mood*
Can this be of any help?

The word "AavAsini" may be right?
It means "resident"
