Lyrics

Tek

O Adi Shakti, we bow our heads before you

Devi namo shir naai

Goddess, we salute you

Pad

Hinglaaj tum janm liyo

O Goddess, you took birth at Heeng Laj

Devi Vindhyaa-chal puni jaai

You stayed at Patan and became known as Jwala Joti

Paalan mein asthaan kiye tum

You reside at Calcutta and soothed the gods’ grief

Puni Jwaala joti kahaai

You helped destroy Ahiravana

Namo shir naai

You enlarged your illusory form

Kalkate mein bahuri baso tum

You resided as Palta Devi, known as that form

Devan gaadh chhoraai

You are worshipped from village to village

Tan biraat Ahiravan mooreu

You have taken the name of Kali

Tum maaya rup badhaai

The learned place their heads at your feet, O Durga

Namo shir naai

Palta devi mein vaas kiye tum

Paalat naam dharaai

Gaavon hi gaavon pujaavat devi ho

Tum Kaali naam dharaai

Namo shir naai

Ko kavi varne rup tumhaaro

Kiran joti chhabi chhai

Drij Durga charan shir navat

Var dihu devi harshaai

Namo shir naai
