॥ श्री भवानी अष्टकं ॥ (Shri Bhavani Ashtakam)

न तातो न माता न बन्धुर्न दाता 

न पुत्रो न पुत्री न भूत्यो न भर्ता।
न जाया न विद्या न वृत्तिर्ममैव
गतिस्त्वं गतिस्त्वं त्वमेका भवानि ॥१॥

 
Na tato, na mata, na bandhur na data,
Na putro, na putri , na bhrutyo , na bharta,
Na jayaa na Vidhya, na Vrutir mamaiva,
Gatistwam, Gatisthwam Twam ekaa Bhavani.

Neither the mother nor the father,
Neither the relation nor the friend,
Neither the son nor the daughter,
Neither the servant nor the husband,
Neither the wife nor the knowledge,
And neither my sole occupation,
Are my refuges that I can depend, Oh, Bhavani,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani.

भवाब्धावपारे महादु:खभीरु:
पपात प्रकामी प्रलोभी प्रमत्त:।
कुसंसारपाशप्रबद्ध: सदाहं 
गतिस्त्वं गतिस्त्वं त्वमेका भवानि ॥२॥
Bhavabdhava pare, Maha dhukhah Bheeruh,
Papaata prakami , pralobhi pramatah,
Kusamsara pasha prabadhah sadaham,
gatisthwam, gatisthwam thwam ekaa bhavani..

I am in this ocean of birth and death,
I am a coward, who dare not face sorrow,
I am filled with lust and sin,
I am filled with greed and desire,
And tied I am, by the this useless life that I lead,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani.

न जानामि दानं न च ध्यानयोगं
न जानामि तन्त्रं न च स्तोत्रमन्त्रम् ।
न जानामि पूजां न च न्यासयोगम् 

गतिस्त्वं गतिस्त्वं त्वमेका भवानि ॥३॥
Na Janaami Dhanam, Na cha dhyana yogam,
Na janami tantram, na cha stotra mantram,
Na janami poojam, na cha nyasa yogam,
gatistwam, gatistwam twam ekaa bhavani..

Neither do I know how to give,
Nor do I know how to meditate,
Neither do I know Thanthra*,
Nor do I know stanzas of prayer,
Neither do I know how to worship,
Nor do I know the art of yoga,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani
* A form of worship by the yogis

न जानामि पुण्यं न जानामि तीर्थ
न जानामि मुक्तिं लयं वा कदाचित् ।
न जानामि भक्तिं व्रतं वापि मातर्गतिस्तवं 
गतिस्त्वं गतिस्त्वं त्वमेका भवानि ॥४॥
Na janami Punyam, Na janami theertam,
Na janami muktim, layam vaa kadachit,
Na janami bhaktim, vrutham vaapi maatha,
gatistwam, gatistwam twam ekaa bhavani.
Know I not how to be righteous,
Know I not the way to the places sacred,
Know I not methods of salvation,
Know I not how to merge my mind with God,
Know I not the art of devotion,
Know I not how to practice austerities, Oh, mother,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani

कुकर्मी कुसङ्गी कुबुद्धि: कुदास:
कुलाचारहीन: कदाचारलीन:।
कुदृष्टि: कुवाक्यप्रबन्ध: सदाहम् 
गतिस्त्वं गतिस्त्वं त्वमेका भवानि ॥५॥
Kukarmi, kusangi, kubudhih, kudhasah,
Kulachara heenah, kadhachara leenah,
Kudrushtih, kuvakya prabandhah, sadaham,
gatisthwam, gatisthwam thwam ekaa bhavani.
Perform I bad actions,
Keep I company of bad ones,
Think I bad and sinful thoughts,
Serve I Bad masters,
Belong I to a bad family,
Immersed I am in sinful acts,
See I with bad intentions,
Write I collection of bad words,
Always and always,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani.

प्रजेशं रमेशं महेशं सुरेशं
दिनेशं निशीथेश्वरं वा कदाचित् ।
न जानामि चान्यत् सदाहं शरण्ये 
गतिस्त्वं गतिस्त्वं त्वमेका भवानि ॥६॥
 Prajesam, Ramesam, Mahesam, Suresam,
Dhinesam, Nisitheswaram vaa kadachit,
Na janami chanyath sadaham saranye,
gatisthwam, gatisthwam thwam ekaa bhavani.

Neither Do I know the creator,
Nor the Lord of Lakshmi,
Neither do I know the lord of all,
Nor do I know the lord of devas,
Neither do I know the God who makes the day,
Nor the God who rules at night,
Neither do I know any other Gods,
Oh, Goddess to whom I bow always,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani

विवादे विषादे प्रमादे प्रवासे
जले चानले पर्वते शत्रुमध्ये।
अरण्ये शरण्ये सदा मां प्रपाहि
गतिस्त्वं गतिस्त्वं त्वमेका भवानि ॥७॥
Vivadhe, Vishadhe, pramadhe, pravase,
Jale cha anale parvathe shatru madhye,
Aranye, saranye sada maam prapahi,
gatistwam, gatistwam twam ekaa bhavani.
 
While I am in a heated argument,
While I am immersed in sorrow,
While I am suffering an accident,
While I am travelling far off,
While I am in water or fire,
While I am on the top of a mountain,
While I am surrounded by enemies,
And while I am in a deep forest,
Oh Goddess, I always bow before thee,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani

अनाथो दरिद्रो जरारोगयुक्तो
महाक्षीणदीन: सदा जाडयवक्त्र:।
विषत्तौ प्रविष्ट: प्रणष्ट: सदाहं 
गतिस्त्वं गतिस्त्वं त्वमेका भवानि ॥८॥
Anadho, dharidro, jara roga yukto,
Maha Ksheenah dheena, sada jaadya vaktrah,
Vipatou pravishtah, pranshatah sadhaham,
gatisthwam, gatisthwam thwam ekaa bhavani.
While being an orphan,
While being extremely poor,
While affected by disease of old age,
While I am terribly tired,
While I am in a pitiable state,
While I am being swallowed by problems,
And While I suffer serious dangers,
I always bow before thee,
So you are my refuge and only refuge, Bhavanid
