Devyaparadhasamapan Stotram
(Asking the Goddess to excuse us-kshama-and to bless us--written by Adi Shankaracharya)

na mantram no yantram tadapi ca na jane stutimahona cahvanam dhyanam tadapi ca na jane stutikathahna jane mudraste tadapi ca na jane vilapanamparam jane matastva danusaranam klesaharanam
Neither do I know chants nor do I know methods, nor do I know how to make prayer. I don't know how to invoke you nor how to meditate, I have no knowledge of any songs. I don't know any signs (mudras) and I don't know the method of imploring deep pleading. But I know one thing for sure, if I follow you (within the folds of your love) I will be released from all my troubles.
vidher-ajnanena dravina-virahenalasatayavidheya sakyatvat-tava caranayor-ya cyutir-abhuttad-etat ksantavyam janani sakaloddharini sivekuputro jayeta kvacidapi kumata na bhavati.
O, Kind Mother (the Liberator of all without discrimination), I don't know the method of doing puja and I am also lazy by nature. I also do not have the capacity to do the right kind of prayer, With all these shortcomings, if there have been any mistakes, please overlook them. Because a son can be bad, however, it is not in the Mother's nature to be bad.
prthivyam putraste janani bahavah santi saralahparam tesam madhye viralataralo ham tava sutahmadiyo yam tyagah samucitamidam no tava sivekuputro jayeta kvacidapi kumata na bhavati.
O, Mother, on this earth you have many good sons and daughters but out of all these I am the most bad child of yours 0, Goddess, you have forsaken me because I have not concentrated on you, this is not reasonable, Because a son can be bad, however, it is not in the Mother's nature to be bad.
jaganmatarmatastava caranaseva na racitana va dattam devi dravinamapi bhuyastava mayatathapi tvam sneham mayi nirupamam yatprakurusekuputro jayeta kvachidapi kumata na bhavati
O, Mother of the Universe, I have never rubbed your feet or done any sort of service, I have not given you wealth, but even strangely enough, you are bestowing your grace on undeserving me Because a son can be bad, however, it is not in the Mother's nature to be bad.
parityakta deva vividha-vidha-seva kulatayamaya pancagiter-adhikam-apanite tu vayasiidanim cen-matas-tava yadi krpa napi bhavitaniralambo lambodara-janani kam yami saranam.
O, Paravati Ma, Mother who has given birth to Ganesh, while I do prayers to other gods, I remain busy with different kinds of works, all gods have left me because I 'm eighty-five years, and I can not give them all the prayers. I am despaired and I can not expect any help from them. If you also leave me at this time where shall I go for support except to you?
svapako jalpako bhavati madhu-pakopama-giraniratanko ranko viharati ciram koti-kanakaih.tavaparne karne visati manuvarne phalam-idamjanah ko janite janani japaniyam japa-vidhau
O, Mother! If anybody hears even a word of your chant, the result is--even the meanest man can utter the sweet pronunciation of this chant like honey and he becomes a very proficient speaker, The poorest man, you will find suitable work for him (The poorest man enjoys millions of pieces gold ) When even a word of your chant has such a result, the ones who are doing it regularly and methodically, we can not fathom what the result will be, and who is that mortal who can know it?

O, Goddess, Bhavani, the Adi-Goddess, the one who rubs his body with ashes and whose fool is poison, and the one whose body is nude, and has matted hair and a necklace of cobras and a hung skull in his hands as an alms bowl, gets that name of Jagadeesh (the Lord of the World) what is the reason for this? How did he get such an immanent position? It is only because of the union with you, and by this his importance has increased
na mokshas-yakanksa bhava-vibhava-vanchapi ca na mena vijnana-peksa sasimukhi sukhecchapi na punahatastvam samyace janani jananam yatu mama vaimrdani rudrani siva siva bhavaniti japatah
O, the Mother whose countenance is like the moon! I do not have any desire for deliverance (moksha), I do not have any desire for worldly wealth. I do not have any craving for knowledge. I also do not want happiness. . . so I have this prayer that the rest of my life may pass in uttering all the names of the Goddess.
naradhitasi vidhina vividhopacaraihkim ruksa cintana-parair-na krtam vacobhihsyame tvameva yadi kincana mayyanathedhatse krpam-ucitam-amba param tavaiva
O, Mother! Shayam, (the blue-bodied one), I could not do methodically your puja or prayer with various religious articles (demeaning oneself before the Godgess). Always my meditation was not crystal clear because it had the hurdness. What fault did I have with all these shortcomings? You bestow on me the greatest grace which is only deserving of you. such a merciful mother can give shelter to such an undeserving son.
Doha:apatsu magnah smaranam tvadiyam, karomi durge karunarnavesi. naitacchathatvam mama bhavayethah, ksudhatrsarta jananim smaranti.
O, Mother! Durga! The ocean of mercy! I am remembering you because I have got all around me the difficulties. I did not pray before this. Kindly don't consider this prayer of mine as my wickedness, because the child who is suffering from hunger and thirst, only remembers the Mother.
jagadamba vicitram atra kim, paripurna karunasti cenmayiaparadha-parampara-param na hi, mata samupeksate sutam
O, Mother of the universe. I am not surprised, because of your complete grace. A son may do fault after fault, but the mother never ignores him.
matsamah pataki nasti papaghni tvatsama na hievam jnatva mahadevi yatha-yogyam tatha kuru
O, Mahadevi, Great Goddess, there is no sinner like me on the earth and there is no other person condoning the sins except you. Knowing all this, you do whatever you think is reasonable.

(26) jvala me hai jtoti tumhari
tmhe sada jujai nana-nari

(27) prema bhakti se jo jasa gavai
duhkha daridra nikata nahi avai

(28) dhyaven tumhai jo nara mana la-i
janma-marana so chuti ja-i

(29) jogi sura-muni kahata pukari
yoga na ho-i bina sakti tumhari

(30) sankara acaraja tapa kino
kama, krodha jiti saba lino

(31) nisidina dhyana dharo sankara ko
kahu kala nahl sumirau tumako

(32) sakti rupa ko marama na payau
sakti ga-i taba mana pachitayau

(33) saranagata hu-i kirti bakhani
jaya jaya jaya jagadamba bhavani

(34) bhai prasanna adi jagadamba
da-I sakti nahi kina bilamba

(35) moko matu kasta ati ghero
tuma bina kauna hare duhkha mero

(36) asa trsna nipata satavai
ripu murakha mohi ati dara pavai

(37) satru nasa hije maharani
sumiro ikacitta tumhe bhavani

(38) krpa karo he matu dayala
rddhi siddhi dai karahu nihala

(39) jaba lagi ji-u dayaphala [a-u
tumharau jasa mai sada suna-u

(40) durga calisa jo ko-i gavai
saba sukha bhoga parama pada pavai

devidasa sarana nija jani
karahu krpa jagadamba bhavani
