 Sri Kalika Ashtakam Lyrics in English-श्री कालिका अष्टकम

Dhyanam

Galadha Raktha mukthavali kantha mala,

Maha gora raava, sudamshtra karala ,

Vivasthra smasanalaya mukthakesi,

Maha kala-kamakulaa kalikeyam. || 1 ||

Bhuje vama yugme siro asi dhadhaana,

Varam Daksha yugmebhyam vai thadaiva,

Sumadhya api thunga sthana bhara namra,

Lasad Raktha srukka dhwaya susmithasya. || 2 ||

Sava dwandhwa karnavathasaa sukesi,

Lasad pretha pani prayukthaika Kanchi,

Savaakara –manchathirooda shivaabhi-,

Schadhir dikshu shabdhayamanabhireje. || 3 ||

Viranchyadhi devasthrayasthe gunaamsthreen,

Samaradhya Kali!Pradhaana bhabhuva,

Anadhim suradhim makhadim bhavadhim,

Swaroopam thwadheeyam na vindanthi devaa. || 4 ||

Jaganmohaneeyam thu vagvadheneeyam,

Suhrut poshinim shathru samharaneeyam,

Vacha sthambaneeyam kimu uchataneeyam,

Swaroopam thwadeeyam na vindanthi devaa. || 5 ||

Iyam swarga dathri puna kalpavalli,

Manojasthu kaamaan yadartha prakuryath,

Kadha they kruthartha bhavatheethi nithyam,

Swaroopam thwadeeyam na vindanthi devaa. || 6 ||

Surapanamathe!Subhakthanurakathe!,

Lasad pootha chithe!Yadha aavirbhavasthe!

Japa-dhyana-pooja sudha dhoutha pankha,

Swaroopam thwadeeyam na vindanthi devaa. || 7 ||

Chidhananda –kandham hasan mandha mandham,

Sarachandrakoti-prabha punja bimbham,

Muneenaam kavinaam hrudhi dhyotha manam,

Swaroopam thwadeeyam na vindanthi devaa. || 8 ||

Maha- megha- kali , surakthabhi shubra,

Kadachith vichithraakruthir yoga maya,

Na bala na Vrudha na kamathuraapi,

Swaroopam thwadeeyam na vindanthi devaa. || 9 ||

Kshamaswa aparadham maha guptha bhavam,

Maya loka madhye prakasikrutham yath,

Thwa dhyanapoothena chapalya bhavath,

Swaroopam thwadeeyam na vindanthi devaa. || 10 ||

Phalasruthi

Yadhi dhyana yuktha pateth yo manushyasthadha sarva loke vishalo bhavecha,

Gruhe cha ashta sidhirmruthe chapi mukthi swaroopam thwadheeyam na vindanthi devaa.
