Shri Saraswati Chalisa

॥ Doha ॥
Janak Janani pad kamal raj,
Nij mastak par dhaari.
Bandau mata Saraswati,
Buddhi bal de daatari.

Poorn jagat mein vyaapt tav,
Mahima amit anantu.
Dusht jano ke paap ko,
Matu tuhi ab hantu.

॥ Chaupai ॥
Jai Shri Sakal buddhi bal raasi,
Jai Sarvagya amar avinaashi.

Jai Jai Jai veenakar dhaari,
Karti sada suhans savaari.

Roop chaturbhuj dhaari mata,
Sakal vishw andar vikhyata.

Jag mein paap buddhi jab hoti,
Tabahi dharm ki feeki jyoti.

Tabahi matu le nij avtaara,
Paap heen karti mahi taara.

Valmiki ji the hatyaara,
Tav prasaad jaane sansaara.

Ramcharit jo rache banaai,
Aadi kavi padvi ko paai.

Kalidas jo bhaye vikhyata,
Teri kripa drishti se mata.

Tulsi Sur aadi viddhaana,
Bhaye aur jo gyani naana.

Tinh na aur raheu avalamba,
Keval kripa aapki Amba.

Karahu kripa soi matu Bhavani,
Dukhit deen nij daasahi jaani.

Putra karahin aparaadh bahuta,
Tehi na dharai chit sundar mata.

Rakhu laaj janani ab meri,
Vinay karau bhanti bahu teri.

Main anaath teri avalamba,
Kripa karau Jai Jai Jagdamba.

Madhu Kaitabh jo ati balvaana,
Baahuyudh Vishnu se thaana.

Samar hazaar paanch mein ghora,
Fir bhi mukh unse nahi mora.

Matu sahaay keenh tehi kaala,
Buddhi vipreet bhai khalhaala.

Tehi te mrityu bhai khal keri,
Purvahu matu manorath meri.

Chand Mund jo the vikhyata,
Chhan mahun sanhaareu tehi mata.

Raktabeej se samarath paapi,
Sur muni hriday dhara sab kaampi.

Kateu sir jim kadali khamba,
Baar baar binau Jagdamba.

Jag prasiddh jo Shumbh Nishumbha,
Kshan mein bandhe taahi tu Amba.

Bharat-matu buddhi phereu jaai,
Ramchandra banvaas karaai.

Ehi vidhi Raavan vadh tum keenha,
Sur nar muni sab ko sukh deenha.

Ko samarath tav yash gun gaana,
Nigam anaadi anant bakhaana.

Vishnu Rudra aj sakahin na maari,
Jinki ho tum rakshakaari.

Rakt Dantika aur Shatakshi,
Naam apaar hai daanav bhakshi.

Durgam kaaj dhara par keenha,
Durga naam sakal jag leenha.

Durg aadi harni tu mata,
Kripa karahu jab jab sukhdaata.

Nrip kopit jo maaran chaahe,
Kaanan mein ghere mrig naahe.

Saagar madhya pot ke bhange,
Ati toofaan nahi kou sange.

Bhoot pret baadha ya dukh mein,
Ho daridra athva sankat mein.

Naam jape mangal sab hoi,
Sanshay ismein karai na koi.

Putraheen jo aatur bhai,
Aur chhaandi poojen ehi maai.

Karai paath nit yah Chaalisa,
Hoy putra sundar gun Eesa.

Dhoopadik naivedya chadhaavai,
Sankat rahit avashya ho jaavai.

Bhakti matu ki karai hamesha,
Nikat na aavai taahi kalesha.

Bandi paath karen shat baara,
Bandi paash door ho saara.

Karahu kripa bhavmukti Bhavani,
Keejai kripa daas nij jaani.

॥ Doha ॥
Mata Suraj kaanti tav,
Andhkaar mam roop.
Dooban te raksha karahu,
Parun na main bhav-koop.

Bal buddhi vidya dehu mohi,
Sunahu Saraswati matu.
Adham Ramsagarahin tum,
Aashray deu punaatu.
