प्रवर थीर निवासिनि निगम प्रथि पाध्ये,
परवार विहारिणी नारायणि ह्रुध्ये,
प्रपञ्च सारे जग्ध धरे श्री विधये,
प्रपन्ना पालन निराथे, मुनिवृन्धरध्ये. जय देवी, जय देवी, जय मोहन रोपे,
मामिह जननि समुधर पथिथं भव कूपे. (ध्रुव पदं ) 1
दिव्य सुधाकर वधने, कुन्धोज्ज्वल रधने,
दिव्य नख निर्जिथ मदने, मधु कैदभ कदने,
विकसिथ पङ्कज नयने, पन्नग पथि सयाने,
खग पथि वाहने, संकट वन दहने. (जय देवी..) 2
मन्चिरन्खित चरणे, मणि मुक्थाभारणे,
कञ्चुकी वस्त्र वरणे, वक्थ्रंभुजा धारणे,
श्क्रमय भय हरणे, भूसुर सुख करणे,
करुणं कुरु मय सरणे, गजान क्रोधरणे ( जय देवी ) 3

You play in the battle field of the angry asuras,

You gave boons to the great sage Madhwa,

And Oh goddess protect your devotees.              (Victory , oh Goddess..)
