Ganga Stotrams

dēvi! surēśvari! bhagavati! gaṅgē tribhuvanatāriṇi taraḻataraṅgē ।
śaṅkaramauḻivihāriṇi vimalē mama matirāstāṃ tava padakamalē ॥ 1 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे देवी! हे देवताओं की अधीश्वरी! हे भगवती गंगे! हे तीनों लोकों का उद्धार करने वाली और चंचल तरंगों से युक्त पवित्र नदी! हे निर्मल माता, जो भगवान शंकर की जटाओं में विहार करती हैं, मेरी बुद्धि सदा आपके चरण-कमलों में लगी रहे।

English Meaning:
O Goddess, O sovereign of the gods, O Divine Mother Ganga, whose playful waves liberate the beings of the three worlds! O pure one who dwells in the matted locks of Lord Shankara, may my mind always remain devoted to Your lotus feet.

bhāgīrathisukhadāyini mātastava jalamahimā nigamē khyātaḥ ।
nāhaṃ jānē tava mahimānaṃ pāhi kṛpāmayi māmajñānam ॥ 2 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे माता भागीरथी! आप सुख प्रदान करने वाली हैं। वेदों और शास्त्रों में आपके पवित्र जल की महिमा प्रसिद्ध है। मैं आपके पूर्ण महात्म्य को नहीं जानता। हे कृपामयी माता! मेरी अज्ञानता से मेरी रक्षा करें।

English Meaning:
O Mother Bhagirathi, giver of happiness, the glory of Your sacred waters is celebrated in the Vedas and scriptures. I do not know the full extent of Your greatness. O compassionate Mother, protect me from my ignorance.

haripadapādyataraṅgiṇi gaṅgē himavidhumuktādhavaḻataraṅgē ।
dūrīkuru mama duṣkṛtibhāraṃ kuru kṛpayā bhavasāgarapāram ॥ 3 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे गंगे! आप भगवान हरि के चरणों से प्रवाहित होने वाली पवित्र धारा हैं। आपकी तरंगें हिम, चंद्रमा और मोतियों के समान उज्ज्वल हैं। मेरे पापों के भारी बोझ को दूर करें और अपनी कृपा से मुझे संसार-सागर के पार पहुँचा दें।

English Meaning:
O Ganga, sacred stream that flowed from the feet of Lord Hari, Your waves shine white like snow, the moon, and pearls. Remove the burden of my sins and, through Your grace, carry me across the ocean of worldly existence.

tava jalamamalaṃ yēna nipītaṃ paramapadaṃ khalu tēna gṛhītam ।
mātargaṅgē tvayi yō bhaktaḥ kila taṃ draṣṭuṃ na yamaḥ śaktaḥ ॥ 4 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
जिसने आपके निर्मल जल का पान किया, उसने मानो परम पद को ही प्राप्त कर लिया। हे माता गंगे! जो व्यक्ति आपमें भक्तिभाव रखता है, उसे देखने तक में यमराज समर्थ नहीं होते।

English Meaning:
Whoever drinks Your pure and sacred waters is regarded as having attained the supreme state. O Mother Ganga, Yama himself is said to have no power over the devotee who is devoted to You.

patitōddhāriṇi jāhnavi gaṅgē khaṇḍita girivaramaṇḍita bhaṅgē ।
bhīṣmajanani hē munivarakanyē patitanivāriṇi tribhuvana dhanyē ॥ 5 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे जाह्नवी गंगे! आप पतितों का उद्धार करने वाली हैं और महान पर्वतों को भेदती हुई अपनी सुंदर धाराओं से सुशोभित हैं। हे भीष्म की जननी! हे श्रेष्ठ मुनि की कन्या! आप पतितों के दुःख और दोषों को दूर करने वाली तथा तीनों लोकों को धन्य करने वाली हैं।

English Meaning:
O Jahnavi Ganga, uplifted of the fallen, whose beautiful streams cut through and adorn the great mountains! O mother of Bhishma, O daughter of the great sage, You remove the afflictions of the fallen and sanctify all the three worlds.

kalpalatāmiva phaladāṃ lōkē praṇamati yastvāṃ na patati śōkē ।
pārāvāravihāriṇi gaṅgē vimukhayuvati kṛtataralāpāṅgē ॥ 6 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
जो व्यक्ति संसार में कल्पलता के समान फल प्रदान करने वाली आपको प्रणाम करता है, वह शोक में नहीं पड़ता। हे गंगे! आप अपने दोनों तटों के बीच विचरण करती हैं और आपकी चंचल दृष्टि मानो संसार से विमुख भक्तों पर भी करुणा बरसाती है।

English Meaning:
Whoever bows to You, O Ganga, the wish-fulfilling vine that grants spiritual fruits, does not fall into sorrow. You flow gracefully between Your banks, casting compassionate and playful glances upon those who turn toward You in devotion.

tava chēnmātaḥ srōtaḥ snātaḥ punarapi jaṭharē sōpi na jātaḥ ।
narakanivāriṇi jāhnavi gaṅgē kaluṣavināśini mahimōttuṅgē ॥ 7 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे माता! जो आपके पवित्र प्रवाह में स्नान कर लेता है, वह फिर संसार के गर्भ में जन्म लेने से मुक्त हो जाता है। हे नरक के कष्टों को दूर करने वाली जाह्नवी गंगे! आप पाप और समस्त कलुष का नाश करने वाली तथा महान महिमा से युक्त हैं।

English Meaning:
O Mother, one who bathes in Your sacred stream is freed from returning again to the womb of worldly existence. O Jahnavi Ganga, remover of the sufferings of hell, You destroy sin and impurity and possess immeasurable glory.

punarasadaṅgē puṇyataraṅgē jaya jaya jāhnavi karuṇāpāṅgē ।
indramukuṭamaṇirājitacharaṇē sukhadē śubhadē bhṛtyaśaraṇyē ॥ 8 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे पवित्र तरंगों वाली जाह्नवी! आपकी करुणामयी दृष्टि से पुनः-पुनः हमारे जीवन को पवित्र करें। आपकी जय हो, जय हो! आपके चरण इंद्र के मुकुट में जड़े रत्नों के समान शोभायमान हैं। हे सुख और मंगल प्रदान करने वाली माता, आप अपने भक्तों की शरण हैं।

English Meaning:
O Jahnavi, whose waves are sacred, purify us again and again with Your compassionate glance. Victory, victory to You! Your feet shine with a radiance compared to the jewels adorning Indra’s crown. O giver of happiness and auspiciousness, You are the refuge of Your devotees.

rōgaṃ śōkaṃ tāpaṃ pāpaṃ hara mē bhagavati kumatikalāpam ।
tribhuvanasārē vasudhāhārē tvamasi gatirmama khalu saṃsārē ॥ 9 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे भगवती! मेरे रोग, शोक, संताप, पाप और कुविचारों के समूह को दूर कर दें। हे तीनों लोकों के सारस्वरूप और पृथ्वी का हार बनकर शोभित होने वाली माता! इस संसार में आप ही मेरी परम गति और आश्रय हैं।

English Meaning:
O Divine Mother, remove my illness, sorrow, suffering, sins, and the collection of my misguided thoughts. O essence of the three worlds, adorning the earth like a sacred necklace, You alone are my ultimate refuge and destination in this worldly existence.

alakānandē paramānandē kuru karuṇāmayi kātaravandyē ।
tava taṭanikaṭē yasya nivāsaḥ khalu vaikuṇṭhē tasya nivāsaḥ ॥ 10 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे अलकानंदा! हे परम आनंद प्रदान करने वाली! हे करुणामयी माता, जिनकी भक्तिपूर्वक व्याकुल होकर वंदना की जाती है, कृपा करें। जिसका निवास आपके तट के समीप है, उसका निवास मानो वैकुण्ठ में ही है।

English Meaning:
O Alakananda, giver of supreme bliss, compassionate Mother whom devotees worship with longing, shower Your grace upon me. One whose dwelling is near Your sacred bank is as though dwelling in Vaikuntha itself.

varamiha nīrē kamaṭhō mīnaḥ kiṃ vā tīrē śaraṭaḥ kṣīṇaḥ ।
athavāśvapachō malinō dīnastava na hi dūrē nṛpatikulīnaḥ ॥ 11 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
आपके जल में कछुआ या मछली बनकर रहना भी श्रेष्ठ है; अथवा आपके तट पर क्षीण और साधारण जीव बनकर रहना भी उत्तम है। आपके निकट रहने वाला मलिन और दीन व्यक्ति भी उस राजकुलीन मनुष्य से श्रेष्ठ है जो आपसे दूर रहता है।

English Meaning:
It is preferable to live in Your waters as a tortoise or fish, or even to live upon Your bank as a weak and humble creature. A poor and insignificant being dwelling near You is better than one of royal lineage who remains far from You.

bhō bhuvanēśvari puṇyē dhanyē dēvi dravamayi munivarakanyē ।
gaṅgāstavamimamamalaṃ nityaṃ paṭhati narō yaḥ sa jayati satyam ॥ 12 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
हे भुवनेश्वरी! हे पवित्र और धन्य देवी! हे दिव्य जलस्वरूप, श्रेष्ठ मुनि की कन्या! जो मनुष्य इस निर्मल गंगा स्तोत्र का प्रतिदिन पाठ करता है, वह निश्चय ही जीवन में विजय और कल्याण प्राप्त करता है।

English Meaning:
O Queen of the universe, O holy and blessed Goddess, O Divine One who manifests as sacred waters, O daughter of the great sage! Whoever recites this pure Ganga Stotram every day surely attains victory, blessedness, and spiritual welfare.

yēṣāṃ hṛdayē gaṅgā bhaktistēṣāṃ bhavati sadā sukhamuktiḥ ।
madhurākantā pañjhaṭikābhiḥ paramānandakalitalalitābhiḥ ॥ 13 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
जिन लोगों के हृदय में गंगा के प्रति भक्ति निवास करती है, उन्हें सदा सुख और मुक्ति प्राप्त होती है। यह स्तुति मधुर, मनोहर और सुंदर छंदों के माध्यम से परम आनंद से परिपूर्ण होकर गंगा माता की महिमा का गुणगान करती है।

English Meaning:
Those whose hearts are filled with devotion to Mother Ganga continually attain happiness and liberation. This hymn, composed in sweet, charming, and graceful verses, is filled with supreme bliss as it praises the glory of Ganga.

gaṅgāstōtramidaṃ bhavasāraṃ vāñChitaphaladaṃ vimalaṃ sāram ।
śaṅkarasēvaka śaṅkara rachitaṃ paṭhati sukhīḥ tava iti cha samāptaḥ ॥ 14 ॥

हिंदी अर्थ:
यह गंगा स्तोत्र संसार के सारस्वरूप, मनोवांछित फल देने वाला और अत्यंत निर्मल है। यह भगवान शंकर के सेवक द्वारा रचित है। जो इसका पाठ करता है, वह सुखी होता है। इस प्रकार यह गंगा स्तोत्र समाप्त होता है।

English Meaning:
This Ganga Stotram contains the essence of spiritual life, grants the desired fruits, and is supremely pure. It was composed by a servant of Lord Shankara. Whoever recites it attains happiness. Thus ends this hymn to Mother Ganga.
