Sita's Prayer / Hey Mata Durga |
| 1. Jaya jaya Giribararaaja kishori/ |
| Jaya mahesha mukha chanda chakori |
| Jaya gajabadana khadaanana maataa/ |
| Jagata janani daamini duti gaataa |
| Glory to you O Daughter of the Mountain |
| Who looks upon Lord Shiva as a partridge on the moon |
| Ganesh and Kartikeya are not your only children |
| For you are the shining Mother of all of the creation |
| 2. Nahin taba aadi madya awasana/ |
| Amita prabaau bedu nahin jaana |
| Bhava bhava bibhava paraabhava kaarini/ |
| Bishwa bimohani swabasa bihaarini |
| You have always been and will exist for eternity |
| Even the Vedas cannot fathom your depths completely |
| You are the cause of all existence and its final dissolution |
| You are the Ultimate enticer, playing with all creation |
| 3. Sewata tohi sulabha phala chaari/ |
| Baradaayanee tripuraari piyaaree |
| Devi pooji pada kamala tumhaare/ |
| Sura nara muni saba hohin sukhaare |
| O Grantor of all wishes, divine partner of the Lord |
| Serving you leads us to life’s greatest rewards |
| O Devi, gods, humans, and sages are bow at your lotus feet |
| And in doing so they easily gain all that they truly seek |
| 4. Mora manoratha jaanahun neeken/ |
| Basahu sadaa ura pura sabahee ken |
| Keenhe-un pragata na kaarana teheen/ |
| Asa kahi charana gahe baidehin |
| You know the deepest desires that reside in my heart |
| Because within that abode we are never ever apart |
| It is because of this that I never spoke my thoughts |
| Saying so, the divine Sita bowed to her sacred feet |
| 5. Vinaya prema basa bha-i Bhavaanee/ |
| Khasi maala murati musukaanee |
| Saadara siyan prasaadu sira dhareu/ |
| Bolee Gauri harashu hiyan bhare-u |
| In Sita’s love and devotion, the Goddess was absorbed |
| Then she dropped a flower lei as her image sweetly smiled |
| Sita took the gift and placed it around her neck |
| Parvati’s hearted filled with joy and happiness, she spoke: |
| 6. Sunu siya satya aseesa hamaari/ |
| Puji hi mana kaamanaa tumhaaree |
| Naarada bachana sadaa suchi saachaa/ |
| So baru milihi jaahin manu raachaa |
| «Hey Sita, listen to my blessing and then be assured |
| Your deep inner desire will surely be fulfilled |
| The words spoken by Narada are always pure and true |
| He whom you desire will become your husband |
