दुर्गे दुर्घट भारी
Sanskrit text with English transliteration and translation
Verse 1
दुर्गे दुर्घट भारी तुजवीण संसारीं ।
अनाथनाथे अंबे करुणा विस्तारीं ॥
वारीं वारीं जन्ममरणातें वारीं ।
हारीं पडलो आतां संकट निवारीं ॥
Durge Durghata Bhari Tujavin Samsari |
Anathanathe Ambe Karuna Vistari ||
Vari Vari Janma-Maranate Vari |
Hari Padalo Aata Sankat Nivari ||
O Durga, this worldly life is full of insurmountable troubles without you; O Mother, refuge of the helpless, spread out your compassion. Again and again ward off birth and death for me — I am utterly defeated; now remove this calamity.
Verse 2
जय देवी जय देवी जय महिषासुरमथनी ।
सुरवरईश्वरवरदे तारक संजीवनी ॥ धृ ॥
Jai Devi Jai Devi Jai Mahishasura-Mathani |
Suravara-Ishwara-Varade Taraka Sanjivani || Dhru ||
Victory, victory to you, O Goddess, slayer of Mahishasura! Bestower of boons to the foremost gods and lords, saviour who grants new life and ferries us across.
Verse 3
त्रिभुवनभुवनीं पाहतां तुजऐसी नाहीं ।
चारी श्रमले परंतु न बोलवे कांहीं ॥
साही विवाद करितां पडिले प्रवाहीं ।
ते तूं भक्तांलागीं पावसि लवलाहीं ॥
Tribhuvana-Bhuvani Pahata Tuj-Aisi Nahi |
Chari Shramale Parantu Na Bolave Kahi ||
Sahi Vivad Karita Padile Pravahi |
Te Tu Bhaktanlagi Paavasi Lavalahi ||
In all the worlds of the three realms there is none like you. The four Vedas grew weary, yet could say nothing (that captured you); the six (philosophies) too, debating, were swept away in the current — yet you come swiftly to your devotees.
Verse 4
प्रसन्नवदने प्रसन्न होसी निजदासां ।
क्लेशांपासुनि सोडवीं तोडीं भवपाशां ॥
अंबे तुजवांचून कोण पुरवील आशा ।
नरहरि तल्लिन झाला पदपंकजलेशा ॥
Prasanna-Vadane Prasanna Hosi Nijadasa |
Kleshanpasuni Sodavi Todi Bhavapasha ||
Ambe Tujavanchun Kon Puravil Asha |
Narahari Tallin Zhala Padapankaja-Lesha ||
With your gracious, smiling face you are pleased with your own servants; free us from afflictions, cut the bonds of worldly existence. O Mother, who but you will fulfil my hopes? Narahari is wholly absorbed in even a particle of the dust of your lotus feet.
