Na mantram no yantram tadapi cha na jaane stuti mahoNa chaawaanam dhyaanam tapi cha na jaane stuti katahaNa jaane mudraaste tadapi cha na jaane wilapanamParam jaane maatastwa danusharanam klesha haranamI don't know how to recite Your mantra, how to worship You with yantra, Nor do I know how to welcome you or meditate upon you.I don't know how to pray to you or how to do Your mudra.Nor do I know how to open my heart to you and tell you of my suffering.But this I know, Oh MA!That to take refuge in you will destroy all my sorrow.2. Widheragyaa nena dravina virahe naa lasatayaaVidheyaa shakya twaa tawa charana yoryaa chyuti rabhootTadetat kshantavyam janani sakalo dhaa rini shiweKuputro jaayetaa kwachidapi kumaataa na bhawatiBecause of my ignorance, poverty and sloth, I have not been able to worship Your feet.But Oh Mother! gracious Deliverer of all,All this should be forgiven,For a bad son may sometimes be born, But a bad mother, never...3. Pritivyaam putraaste janani bahawa santi saralaahParam tesham madhye virala tara loham tawa sutahMadheeyo yam tyaagah samuchitamidam no tawa shiweKuputro jaayeta kwachidapi kumaataa na bhawatiOh MA! You have so many worthy sons on earthBut I am a worthless,Yet it isn't right that You should abandon meFor a bad son may sometimes be born in this worldBut a bad mother, never... 4. Jaggan maatar maata stawa charana sewa na rachitaaNa waa datam dewi dravina mapi bhooya stawa mayaaTatapi twam sneham mayi niroopamam yatpra kurusheKuputro jaayeta kwachi dapi kumaataa na bhawatiOh Ma! Mother of the World.I have not worshipped Your feet Nor have I given wealth to YouYet the love and affection You bestow on me is without compare.For a bad son may sometimes be born in this world,But a bad mother, never...5. Na mokshasya kanksha bhawa wibhawa waancha pichana meNa wigyaanaa peksha shashi mukhi sukhechaa pi na poonahAtastwaam sanyaache janani jananam yaatu mama waiMridaanee Rudraanee Shiwaa Shiwaa Bhawaanee ti japatahI have no desire for liberationNor do I desire wealth or knowledge.Oh Moon-Faced One! I don't even wish to be happy.But I beg only this of You,That my whole life may pass in the singing of these words:Mridaani, Rudraani, Shivaa, Shivaa, Bhavaani.
