॥ श्री दुर्गा पञ्चरत्नम् ॥
ते ध्यानयोगानुगतां पशन्ति
त्वां देवि सत्त्वेन परेण शक्तिम्।
जगत्समस्तं विधिनायिकां त्वां
दुर्गां देवीं शरणमहं प्रपद्ये॥१॥
देवी प्रपन्नार्तिहरे प्रसीद
प्रसीद मातर्जगतोऽखिलस्य।
प्रसीद विश्वेश्वरि पाहि विश्वं
त्वमीश्वरी देवि चराचरस्य॥२॥
रक्षांसि यत्रोग्रविषाश्च नागा
यत्रारयो दस्युबलानि यत्र।
दावानलो यत्र तथाब्धिमध्ये
तत्र स्थिता त्वं परिपासि विश्वम्॥३॥
सृष्टिस्थितिविनाशानां शक्तिभूते सनातनि।
