sṛṣṭisthitivināśānāṃ śaktibhūte sanātani /
guṇāśraye guṇamaye nārāyaṇi namo 'stu te //

O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee!
O thou who art beneficent with every happiness,
O lady auspicious, who accomplishest every petition,
O giver of refuge, O Tryambakā, O brilliant one,
O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee I
O eternal goddess, who constitutest the energy
Of creation, permanence and destruction,
O thou abode of good qualities, who consistest of good qualities,
O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee![6]
O thou who ridest in a heavenly car yoked with swans,
Who assumest the form of Brahmāṇī.[7]
O goddess who sprinklest kuśa-grass-steeped water,[8]
O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee!
O thou who boldest a trident, the moon and a serpent,
Who art borne on a huge bull,
With the natural character of Māheāvarī,[9]
O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee!
O thou who art attended by the peacock and cock,
Who bearest a great spear, O sinless one;
O thou who takest thy station in Kaumārī’s[10] form,
O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee!
O thou who holdest as thy finest weapons
A conch, discus, club, and the bow Śārṅga,
Be gracious, O thou who hast Vaiṣṇavī’s[11] form;
O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee!
O thou who graspest a huge formidable discus,
Who hast uplifted the earth with thy tushes,
O auspicious one, who hast a hog-like form,[12]
O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee!
O thou who in the fierce man-lion[13] form
Didst put forth thy efforts to slay the Daityas,
O thou who art connected[14] with the deliverance of the three worlds,
O Nārāyaṇī, reverence be to thee!
