Your majestic presence, ceaselessly enlightens the ambience,

Your resplendent countenance, exuberate the appearance

O’ Ma Durga! you sure are the nemesis of all the evil forces,

Leaving them annihilated, with your eternal assurance

* 

With exuding aura, day and night tirelessly you guard us,

 Slay the countess demons, with your celestial fury abound

With resolute severity, you fiercely guard your ardent devotees,

 Never ing to protect your worshippers all the year round

 *

Your glories will be sung with the rise and fall of the tide,

World will  always pray  you  with  frisson  and pride!

Wondrous blissful zeal that the zeitgeist ever extended,

Sure you’d safeguard the humanity, whenever needed!!

* 

O, Indomitable Ma, your reincarnations saved the world,

With your imposing presence, devotees shall be blessed..!

We devotees shall have your blessings lastingly clung,

For the countless benedictions, your glories will be sung!!
