Maa Maha Kali Aarti

Maa Maha Kali Aarti
[Worship of Mother Kali in Hindi]
Translated by P. R. Ramachander

Prema Sahitha nita karun aarthi,
Maha kali maiya ki,
Arid ala daranii, mangala bharani,
Dukh hrini, sukhadaiyaa ki. 1

Daily I will Worship with love,
The great mother Kali,
Who tears her enemies to pieces,
Who bestows blessings on her devotees,
Who is the destroyer of sorrow,
And creator of pleasure.

Tumahi aagama bhava bharne vali,
Tumahi jagatha laya karne vali,
Thumahe kashta lagee bhatana para.
Aakara turata sahaiyya ki. 2

You are the one who populates the universe,
You are the one who dissolves the universe,
You are the one who helps fast,
Your devotees in distress.

Tumhin prabala ho hari ki Shakthi,
Rudra bhava shankara ki bhakthi,
Thumhin janani patavaraa bani,
Ika sevaka Sundara naiyaa kii. 3

You are indomitable power of Hari,
You are the devotion to the angry shankara,
And you are mother the pedal that steers,
The boat of life of this devotee Sundara.
