Pallavi

Oh peaceful  goddess Durga , who has a black body,

Who takes care of good people  and rides on a lion

 

Anupallavi

Oh Goddess who shines like light , who cuts of avarice of people,

Who makes mercy her own  and is ever auspicious

 

Charanam

Oh Goddess who lives in a pure  , peaceful temple,

Oh mother  who  removes the sins from our actions,

Who practices Dharma , Who has eyes of a lass,

Who increases love  and who gives us victory.
