DURGA CHALISA

Namo Namo Durge Sukh karani,

Namo Namo ambe Dukh harani.

Nirakar hai jyoti tumhari,

Tihun lok pheli ujayari.

Shashi lalat mukh mahavishala,

Netra lal bhrikutee vikarala.

Roop Matu ko adhika suhave,

Daras karat jan ati sukh pave.

Tum sansar shakti laya kina,

Palan hetu anna dhan dina.
Annapurna hui jag pala,

Tumhi adi sundari Bala.

Pralaya kala sab nashan hari,

Tum gauri Shiv-Shankar pyari.

Shiv yogi tumhre guna gaven,

Brahma Vishnu tumhen nit dhyaven.

Roop Saraswati ko tum dhara,

De subuddhi rishi munina ubara.

Dharyo roop Narsimha ko amba,

Pragat bhayin phar kar khamba.

Raksha kari Prahlaad bachayo,

Hiranakush ko swarga pathayo.

Lakshmi roop dharo jag mahin,

Shree Narayan anga samihahin.

Ksheer sindhu men karat vilasa,

Daya Sindhu, deeje man asa.

Hingalaja men tumhin Bhavani,

Mahima amit na jet bakhani.

Matangi Dhoomavati Mata,

Bhuvneshwari bagala sukhdata.

Shree Bhairav lara jog tarani,

Chhinna Bhala bhav dukh nivarani.

Kehari Vahan soh Bhavani,

Langur Veer Chalat agavani.

Kar men khappar khadag viraje,

Jako dekh kal dan bhaje.

Sohe astra aur trishoola,

Jase uthata shatru hiya shoola.

Nagarkot men tumhi virajat,

Tihun lok men danka bajat.

Shumbhu Nishumbhu Danuja tum mare,

Rakta-beeja shankhan samha

Mahishasur nripa ati abhimani,

Jehi agha bhar mahi akulani

Roop karal Kalika dhara,

Sen Sahita tum tin samhara.

Pan garha Santan par jab jab,

Bhayi sahaya Matu tum tab tab.

Amarpuni aru basava loka,

Tava Mahirna sab rahen asoka.

Jwala men hai jyoti tumhari,

Tumhen sada poojen nar nari.

Prem bhakti se Jo yash gave,

Dukh-daridra nikat nahin ave.

Dhyave tumhen jo nar man laee,

Janam-maran tako chuti jaee.

Jogi sur-muni kahat pukari,

Jog na ho bin shakti tumhari.

Shankar Aacharaj tap keenhon,

Kam, krodha jeet sab leenhon.

Nisidin dhyan dharo Shankar ko,

Kahu kal nahini sumiro tum ko.

Shakti roop ko maran na payo,

Shakti gayi tab man pachitayo.

Sharnagat hui keerti bakhani,

Jai jai jai Jagdamb Bhavani.

Bhayi prasanna Aadi Jagdamba,

Dayi shakti nahin keen vilamba.

Mokon Matu kashta ati ghero,

Tum bin kaun hare dukh mero.

Aasha trishna nipat sataven,

Moh madadik sab binsaven.

Shatru nash keeje Maharani,

Sumiron ekachita tumhen Bhavani.

Karo kripa Hey Matu dayala,

Riddhi-Siddhi de karahu nihala.

Jab lagi jiyoon daya phal paoon,

Tumhro yash men sada sunaoon.

Durga Chalisa jo gave,

Sab sukh bhog parampad pave.

Translation of Durga Chalisa in English

I bow to You O Goddess Durga,

the bestower of happiness!

I bow to You O Goddess Amba,

who Ends all miseries.

The radiance of your light is limitless

and all pervading and all thethreerealms

(Earth, Heaven And the Nether World)

are enlightened by Thee.

Your face is like the moon and mouth

very huge. Your eyes shine with ared

glow and You have a Frightening frown.

O Mother! Your look is enchanting,

the verysight of which ensures

welfareof the devout.

All the powers of the World repose in

Thee andit isYou who provide food

and wealth for the World's survival.

Like the feeding Mother Annapoorna,

You nurture the whole universe

and You are the one Who appear

like the timelessBala Sundari

(young girl of extreme beauty).

At the time of dissolution, it is You, O Mother,

who destroys everything. You are the beloved

Consort of Lord Shiva, Gauri (Parvati).

Lord Shiva and all yogis always

chant your praiseBrahma,Vishnu

and all other Gods ever meditate on You.

You appear in the form of Goddess

Saraswati too,to grant wisdomto

the sages and thus ensure their Welfare.

O Mother Amba! It was You who

appeared in the form of Narsimha,

sundering the pillar.

Thus You saved Prahlad and

Hiranyakashyap also went to

Heaven as he was killed by your Hands.

In the form of Goddess Lakshmi,

O Mother, you appearin this world

and repose by the side of Shree Narayan.

Dwelling in the ocean of milk, O Goddess,

with Lord Vishnu, please fulfill my desires.

O Bhavani, the famous Goddess of Hingalaja

is no one else but You Yourself. Illimitable

is your Glory, defying description.

You are yourself Matangi and Dhoomavati Mata.

It is You who appear as Bhuvaneshwari and

Bagalamukhi Devi to bestow happiness to all.

It is You who redeem the wolrd, appearing

in the form of Shree Bhairavi,Taradevi and

Chhinnamasta Devi, and end its sorrows.

Reposing gracefully uopn your vehicle,

O Goddess Bhavani, You are welcome

by the brave Langour (Lord Hanuman).

When You appear in the form of Goddess

Kali,with sword in one hand and a cupel

in the other, Even Time flees in panic.

Beholding You, well armed, with a

Trident in your hand, the enemy's

heart aches with the sting Of fear.

You also repose in the form of Devi

at Nagarkot in Kangara. Thus all the

three realms shudder in the might of your glory.

You slayed the demons like Shumbh

& Nishumb and massacred the thousand

forms of the dreaded Demon Raktabeej.

When the earth was severely distressed bearing t

he load of the sins of the arrogant Mahishasur.

You assumed the dreadful form of Goddess Kali

andmassacred him along with his army.

Thus, whenever the noble saints were distressed,

it is You O Mother, who came to their rescue.

All the realms including the Amarpuri

(divine realm)remain sorrow-less and

happy by Your Grace. O Goddess!

It is the symbol of Your glory that is burning

brightly at Shree JwalaJi. All me and women

Ever worship You, O Mother!

He who sings Your glory with devotion,

love, andsincerity remains beyond

the reach of grief And poverty.

He who meditates upon Your form with

concentrationgoesbeyond the

cycle of births and deaths.

All the yogis, gods and sages openly declare

that without your favour one can't establish

communion with God.

Shankaracharya had performed once

a special penance called Aacharaj

and by virtue of which he had

subdued his anger and desire.

He ever worshipped Lord Shankar and

never fora moment concentrated

his mind on You.

Since He did not realise your immense

glory, all His powers waned and then

He repented hitherto.

Then He sought refuge in You, chanted

Your glory and 'victory, victory,

victory to Thee, O Jagadamba Bhavani'.

Then, O Primal Goddess Jagadamba Ji,

You were propitiated and in no time

You bestowed Him with his lost powers.

O Mother! Severe afflictions distress me

and no one except Your Honoured Self

can providerelief please end my afflictions.

Hopes and longings ever torture me.

All sorts of passions and lust ever

torment my heart.

O Goddess Bhavani! I meditate only upon

you Please kill my enemies O Queen!

O Merciful Mother! Show me your favour

and make me feel happy by bestowing

me with all sorts of riches and powers.

O Mother! May I be receptable of Your

grace as long as I live, ever recounting

the feats of Your Glory to all.

This way, whoever sings this Durga

Chalisa shall ever enjoyall sorts of pleasures

and shall attain the highest state in the end.
