Shri Durga Chalisa (Hinglish)

Namo Namo Durge Sukh Karani. Namo Namo Ambe Dukh Harani. Nirakar Hai Jyoti Tumhari. Tihoun Lok Phaili Ujiyari. Shashi Lalaat Mukh Maha Vishala. Netra Lal Brikoutee Vikarala. Roop Maatu Ko Adhik Suhave. Daras Karata Jan Ati Sukh Pave. Tum Sansar Shakti Laya Keena. Palana Hetu Anna Dhan Deena. Annapoorna Hui Jag Pala. Tumhi Aadi Sundari Bala. Pralayakala Sab Nashan Haari. Tum Gauri Shiv Shankar Pyari. Shiv Yogi Tumhare Gun Gavein. Brahma Vishnu Tumhein Nit Dhyavein. Roop Saraswati Ko Tum Dhara. De Sadbuddhi Rishi Muni Ubara. Dharyo Roop Narsimha Ko Amba. Pragat Bhayi Phaadhkar Khamba. Raksha Kari Prahlaad Bachayo. Hiranyaksh Ko Swarg Pathayo. Lakshmi Roop Dharo Jag Maahin. Shree Narayan Anga Samahin. Ksheersindhu Mein Karat Vilasa. Dayasindhu Deejay Man Aasa. Hingalaj Mein Tumhi Bhavani. Mahima Amit Na Jaat Bakhani. Matangi Aru Dhoomavati Mata. Bhuvaneshwari Bagala Sukh Data. Shree Bhairav Tara Jag Tarini. Chhinna Bhaal Bhav Dukh Nivarini. Kehari Vahan Soha Bhavani. Langur Veer Chalat Agavani. Kar Mein Khappar Khadga Virajay. Jako Dekh Kaal Dar Bhajay. Sohai Astra Aur Trishoola. Jate Uthat Shatru Hiya Shoola. Nagarkot Mein Tumhi Virajat. Tihunlok Mein Danka Bajat. Shumbh Nishumbh Danav Tum Mare. Raktabeej Shankhan Sanhare. Mahishasur Nrip Ati Abhimani. Jehi Agh Bhar Mahi Akulani. Roop Karaal Kalika Dhara. Sen Sahit Tum Tihi Sanhara. Pari Gaadh Santan Par Jab Jab. Bhayi Sahay Maatu Tum Tab Tab. Amarpuri Aru Basav Loka. Tab Mahima Sab Rahein Ashoka. Jwala Mein Hai Jyoti Tumhari. Tumhein Sada Poojain Nar-Nari. Prem Bhakti Se Jo Jas Gavai. Dukh Daridra Nikat Nahin Aavai. Dhyave Tumhein Jo Nar Man Layi. Janm-Maran Tako Chhuti Jayi. Jogi Sur Muni Kahat Pukari. Yog Na Ho Bin Shakti Tumhari. Shankar Acharaj Tap Keeno. Kaam Aru Krodh Jeeti Sab Leeno. Nishidin Dhyan Dharo Shankar Ko. Kahu Kaal Nahin Sumiro Tumko. Shakti Roop Ko Maram Na Payo. Shakti Gayi Tab Man Pachhtayo. Sharnagat Hui Keerti Bakhani. Jai Jai Jai Jagadamb Bhavani. Bhayi Prasann Aadi Jagadamba. Dayi Shakti Nahin Keen Vilamba. Moko Maatu Kashta Ati Ghero. Tum Bin Kaun Harai Dukh Mero. Asha Trishna Nipat Satavein. Moh Madadik Sab Binshavein. Shatru Nash Kijai Maharani. Sumiron Ikchit Tumhein Bhavani. Karo Kripa Hey Maatu Dayala. Riddhi-Siddhi Dai Karahu Nihala. Jab Lagi Jiyun Daya Phal Paaun. Tumharo Jas Main Sada Sunaaun. Shree Durga Chalisa Jo Koyi Gavai. Sab Sukh Bhog Parampad Pavai. Devidas Sharan Nij Jani. Karahu Kripa Jagadamb Bhavani.
