श्रीदुर्गाकवचम्

 

ईश्वर उवाच

शृणु देवि प्रवक्ष्यामि कवचं सर्वसिद्धिदम् ।

पठित्वा पाठयित्वा च नरो मुच्येत सङ्कटात् ॥ १ ॥

उमा देवी शिरः पातु ललाटं शूलधारिणी ।

चक्षुषी खेचरी पातु वदनं सर्वधारिणी ॥ २ ॥

जिह्वां च चण्डिका देवी  ग्रीवां सौभद्रिका तथा ।

अशोकवासिनी चेतो द्वौ बाहू वज्रधारिणी ॥ ३ ॥

हृदयं ललिता देवी उदरं सिंहवाहिनी ।

कटिं भगवती देवी द्वावूरू विन्ध्यवासिनी ॥ ४ ॥

महाबाला च जङ्घे द्वे पादौ भूतलवासिनी

एवं स्थिताऽसि देवि त्वं त्रैलोक्यरक्षणात्मिके ।

रक्ष मां सर्वगात्रेषु दुर्गे दॆवि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ ५ ॥

.Durga Kavacham

(The armour of Durga)

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

(Durga is the fierce form of Goddess Parvathi who protects every one. I was not able to know the author or the source of this great armour)

Srunu devi pravakshyami Kavacham sarva sidhitham,

Padithwa padayithwa cha naro muchyathe sankadath.                                         1

Oh Devi, I am telling you the armour which gets you everything,

Reading or making others read, men get rid of all their sorrows.

Ajnathwa kavacham devi durga mantram cha yojayeth,

Sa cha apnothi balam thasya pancha nagam vrajeth puna.                                    2

If he who does not know , learns this Kavacham,

Along with the Durga mantram,

He would add to himself  the strength,

Of the five serpents again.

Umadevi sira pathu, lalalde soola dharini,

Chakshshi kesari pathu, karnou cha dwara vasini.                                                 3

Let Uma devi protect my head,

Let my forehead be protected by her who carries the soola,

Let the lion protect my eyes,

And let her who lives near the gate protect my ears.

Sugandha nasike pathu, vadanam sarva dharini,

Jihwa chandika devi, greevam soupathrika thadha.                                                 4

Let she who is like incense protect my nose,

Let she who carries everything protect my face,

Let Chandika devi protect my toungue,

Let Soupathrika protect my  neck.

Asoka vasini chetho, dhvow bahu vajra dharini,

Hrudayam lalitha devi, udaram simha vahini.                                                         5

Let Asoka vasini protect my consciousness

Let Vajra dharini protect my two arms,

Let Lalitha Devi protect my heart,

Let my belly be protected by She who rides on a lion.

Katim Bhagawathi devi, dwavooru Vindhya vasini,

Maha Bala Jange , dhwe padhou bhoothalavasini,.                                                  6

Let Bhagwathi Devi protect my hips,

Let She who lives on Vindhya protect my two thighs,

Let the very strong one protect my  calf,

And let she who lives on all beings protect my two feet.

Evam sthithasi devi thwam trilokye  rakshanathmika,

Raksha maam sarva gathreshu , durga devi namosthuthe.                                        7

Thus stands the devi who protects the three worlds,

Please protect all my body parts,

My salutations to Goddess Durga.
