I bow to that embodiment of ambrosia which is Consciousness and Bliss incarnate. It melts the orb of the moon and drinks (the moon-light). It shines with its profuse lustre inside the sushumná located in the lotus of shadádhára.Sushumná : a vein of the body supposed to be one of the passages for the breath.Shadádhára : one of the mystical circles in the body. ज्वलत्कोटिबालार्कभासारुणाङ्गींसुलावण्यशृङ्गारशोभाभिरामाम् ।महापद्मकिञ्जल्कमध्ये विराजत्त्रिकोणे निषण्णां ं भजे श्रीभवानीम् ॥२॥ jvalatkoṭibālārkabhāsāruṇāṅgīṃsulāvaṇyaśṛṅgāraśobhābhirāmām .mahāpadmakiñjalkamadhye virājattrikoṇe niṣaṇṇāṃ ṃ bhaje śrībhavānīm ..2.. I worship that Goddess Bhavánè who is seated on the triangle which shines in the midst of the filaments of the white lotus. She is extremely beautiful with lovely and charming grace. She has a shining red body similar to that of innumerable rising suns. क्वणत्किङ्किणीनूपुरोद्भासिरत्नप्रभालीढलाक्षार्द्रपादाब्जयुग्मम् ।अजेशाच्युताद्यैः सुरैः सेव्यमानंमहादेवि मन्मूर्ध्नि ते भावयामि ॥ ३॥ kvaṇatkiṅkiṇīnūpurodbhāsiratnaprabhālīḍhalākṣārdrapādābjayugmam .ajeśācyutādyaiḥ suraiḥ sevyamānaṃmahādevi manmūrdhni te bhāvayāmi .. 3.. Oh! Great Goddess! I contemplate your lotus feet on my head as being served by the celestials such as Brahmá, Achyuta (Vishnu) and others. These feet are wet due to red dye and dazzling with the gems of the anklets jingling with bells. सुषोणाम्बराबद्धनीवीविराजन्महारत्नकाञ्चीकलापं नितम्बम् ।स्फुरद्दक्षिणावर्तनाभिं च तिस्रोवली रम्यते रोमराजिं भजेऽहम् ॥ ४॥ suṣoṇāmbarābaddhanīvīvirājanmahāratnakāñcīkalāpaṃ nitambam .sphuraddakṣiṇāvartanābhiṃ ca tisrovalī ramyate romarājiṃ bhaje’ham .. 4.. Oh! Mother! I worship your streak of hair on the three folds on the belly, as also the shining naval circling to the right. (I also worship your) hip having the red garment tied around the waist, adorned by the girdle studded with gems and tinkling. लसद्वृत्तमुत्तुङ्गमाणिक्यकुम्भो-पमश्रीस्तनद्वन्द्वमम्बांबुजाक्षीम् ।भजे दुग्ध पूर्णाभिरामं तवेदंमहाहारदीप्तं सदा प्रस्नुतास्यम् ॥ ५॥ lasadvṛttamuttuṅgamāṇikyakumbho-pamaśrīstanadvandvamambāmbujākṣīm .bhaje dugdha pūrṇābhirāmaṃ tavedaṃmahāhāradīptaṃ sadā prasnutāsyam .. 5.. Oh! Lotus-eyed Mother! I worship your two radiant breasts, round in shape comparable to lofty gem-studded pitchers. They are beautiful and are full with milk. Shining with a breast-lace and oozing at the top, they are beautiful and are full of milk. शिरीषप्रसूनोल्लसद्बाहुदण्डैर्-ज्वलद्बाणकोदण्डपाशाङ्कुशैश्च ।चलत्कङ्कणोदारकेयूरभूषाज्वलद्भिः लसन्तीं भजे श्रीभवानीम् ॥ ६॥ śirīṣaprasūnollasadbāhudaṇḍair-jvaladbāṇakodaṇḍapāśāṅkuśaiśca .calatkaṅkaṇodārakeyūrabhūṣājvaladbhiḥ lasantīṃ bhaje śrībhavānīm .. 6.. I worship Goddess Bhavánè who glitters with (four) arms delicate like the Sirisha flowers, and which carry arrow, bow, noose and goad and which shine with bangles and bracelets. शरत्पूर्णचन्द्रप्रभापूर्णबिम्बाधरस्मेरवक्त्रारविन्दं सुशंताम्।सुरत्नावलीहारताटङ्कशोभामहा सुप्रसन्नां भजे श्रीभवानीम् ॥ ७॥ śaratpūrṇacandraprabhāpūrṇabimbādharasmeravaktrāravindaṃ suśantām.suratnāvalīhāratāṭaṅkaśobhāmahā suprasannāṃ bhaje śrībhavānīm .. 7.. I worship Goddess Bhavani who is extremely graceful and tranquil, who has her lotus-face shining like the autumnal full-moon smiling with red bimbha-like lips. She is lustrous with ear-ornaments studded with gems. सुनासापुटं पद्मपत्रायताक्षंयजन्तः श्रियं दानदक्षं कटाक्षम् ।ललाटोल्लसद्गन्धकस्तूरिभूषो- ज्ज्वलद्भिःस्फुरन्तीं भजे श्रीभवानीम् ॥ ८॥ sunāsāpuṭaṃ padmapatrāyatākṣaṃyajantaḥ śriyaṃ dānadakṣaṃ kaṭākṣam .lalāṭollasadgandhakastūribhūṣo- jjvaladbhiḥsphurantīṃ bhaje śrībhavānīm .. 8.. Oh Mother! I praise your lotus-face which bears musk on the cheeks and forehead, and the nostrils, the beautiful eye-brows and forehead, the lips and the graceful side-glance capable of conferring rewards. चलत्कुण्डलां ते भ्रमद्भृङ्गवृन्दांघनस्निग्धधम्मिल्लभूषोज्ज्वलन्तीम् ।स्फुरन्मौलिमाणिक्यमध्येन्दुरेखाविलासोल्लसद्दिव्यमूर्धानमीडे ॥ ९॥ calatkuṇḍalāṃ te bhramadbhṛṅgavṛndāṃghanasnigdhadhammillabhūṣojjvalantīm .sphuranmaulimāṇikyamadhyendurekhāvilāsollasaddivyamūrdhānamīḍe .. 9.. I praise your head which is radiant with the crest-jewel and the digit of the moon. It has the swarms of bees swinging inside the moving braids and is shining with the densely set white jasmine flowers. स्फुरत्वम्ब बिम्बस्य मे हृत्सरोजेसदा वाङ्मयं सर्वतेजोमयं च ।इति श्रीभवानिस्वरूपं तदेवंप्रपञ्चात्परं चातिसूक्ष्मं प्रसन्नम् ॥ १०॥ sphuratvamba bimbasya me hṛtsarojesadā vāṅmayaṃ sarvatejomayaṃ ca .iti śrībhavānisvarūpaṃ tadevaṃprapañcātparaṃ cātisūkṣmaṃ prasannam .. 10.. May this smiling form of yours, Oh! Bhaváni! which is beyond the Universe, very subtle and peaceful shine forth the lotus heart of mine, your child! May the literature in the form of all effulgence also dawn upon me! गणेशाणिमाद्याखिलैः शक्तिवृन्दै-र्स्फुरच्छ्रीमहाचक्रराजोल्लसन्तीम् ।परां राजराजेश्वरीं त्वा भवानींशिवाङ्कोपरिस्थां शिवां भावयेऽहम् ॥ ११॥ gaṇeśāṇimādyākhilaiḥ śaktivṛndai-rsphuracchrīmahācakrarājollasantīm .parāṃ rājarājeśvarīṃ tvā bhavānīṃśivāṅkoparisthāṃ śivāṃ bhāvaye’ham .. 11.. I contemplate on you Oh! Rajarajeshwari! Traipurè, who are seated on the lap of Lord shiva. You are the highest, are shining in the radiant cakra and are surrounded by all groups of shaktis led by Lord Ganeshá. त्वमर्कस्त्वमग्निस्त्वमिन्दुस्त्वमाप-स्त्वमाकाशभूर्वायवस्त्वं चिदात्मा ।त्वदन्यो न कश्चित्प्रकाशोऽस्ति सर्वंसदानन्दसंवित्स्वरूपं तवेदम् ॥ १२॥ tvamarkastvamagnistvamindustvamāpa-stvamākāśabhūrvāyavastvaṃ cidātmā .tvadanyo na kaścitprakāśo’sti sarvaṃsadānandasaṃvitsvarūpaṃ tavedam .. 12.. I worship you. You are of the form of blissful knowledge. There is none else in the universe superior to you. You are the sun, the moon, the fire, the water, the sky, the earth, the wind and the mahat.Here the Goddess is conceived as aúûamürti-eight forms as the lord of the principles. गुरुस्त्वं शिवस्त्वं च शक्तिस्त्वमेवत्वमेवासि माता पिताऽसि त्वमेव ।त्वमेवासि विद्या त्वमेवासि बुद्धि-र्गतिर्मे मतिर्देवि सर्वं त्वमेव ॥ १३॥ gurustvaṃ śivastvaṃ ca śaktistvamevatvamevāsi mātā pitā’si tvameva .tvamevāsi vidyā tvamevāsi buddhi-rgatirme matirdevi sarvaṃ tvameva .. 13.. Oh! Goddess! You are my preceptor. You are Lord shiva. You are the shakti. You are my mother and father. You are the knowledge. You are my kith and kin. You are my only refuge, thinking and indeed all in all. श्रुतीनामगम्यं सुवेदागमाद्यैर्-महिम्नो न जानाति पारं तवेदम् ।स्तुतिं कर्तुमिच्छामि ते त्वं भवानिक्षमस्वेदमम्ब प्रमुग्धः किलाहम् ॥ १४॥ śrutīnāmagamyaṃ suvedāgamādyair-mahimno na jānāti pāraṃ tavedam .stutiṃ kartumicchāmi te tvaṃ bhavānikṣamasvedamamba pramugdhaḥ kilāham .. 14.. Oh! Mother Bhavánè! I wish to praise you; Oh! Knower of the Vedas and Ágamas! You are unattainable through scriptures. (People) do not know the extent of your greatness. You please forgive this act of mine! I am indeed foolish. शरण्ये वरेण्ये सुकारुण्यपूर्णेहिरण्योदराद्यैरगम्येऽतिपुण्ये ।भवारण्यभीतं च मां पाहि भद्रेनमस्ते नमस्ते नमस्ते भवानि ॥ १५॥ śaraṇye vareṇye sukāruṇyapūrṇehiraṇyodarādyairagamye’tipuṇye .bhavāraṇyabhītaṃ ca māṃ pāhi bhadrenamaste namaste namaste bhavāni .. 15.. Oh! Bhaváni! Salutations to you again and again. Oh! Auspicious one! Oh! my refuge! Oh! Meritorious one! oh! Compassion-incarnate! One who cannot be understood by Brahmá and others! Protect me from the fear of the forest of mundane existence. इमामन्वहं श्रीभवानीभुजङ्ग-स्तुतिर्यः पठेच्छ्रोतुमिच्छेत तस्मै ।स्वकीयं पदं शाश्वतं चैव सारंश्रियं चाष्टसिद्धिं भवानी ददाति ॥ १६॥ imāmanvahaṃ śrībhavānībhujaṅga-stutiryaḥ paṭhecchrotumiccheta tasmai .svakīyaṃ padaṃ śāśvataṃ caiva sāraṃśriyaṃ cāṣṭasiddhiṃ bhavānī dadāti .. 16.. Whoever reads this meritorious hymn on Bhavánè set in bhujañga-prayáta metre with devotion, Goddess Bhaváni confers on him the eight perfections (siddis), prosperity and her own external abode which is the essence of the Vedas. भवानी भवानी भवानी त्रिवारम्- उदारम् मुदा सर्वदा ये जपन्ति । न शोकम् न मोहम्
