जय जय हे मधु कैटभ मारिणी । जय जय हे महिषासुर मर्दिनी ॥ जय जय हे भण्डासुर निशुंभ संहारिणी । जय जय अक्षय युवती भारती ॥
Bhavānī Aṣṭakam
Jaya jaya he madhu kaiṭabha māriṇī . Jaya jaya he mahiṣāsura marddinī .. Jaya jaya he bhaṇḍāsura niśumbha saṁhāriṇī . Jaya jaya akṣaya yuvatī bhāratī ..

“Peaceful in form, reclining on the serpent, lotus-naveled, lord of the divine; ground of the universe, vast as the sky, dark as cloud, auspicious-limbed; beloved of Lakṣmī, lotus-eyed, reached by yogis through meditation — I bow to Viṣṇu, remover of the fear of becoming, sole lord of all worlds.”
“Swift as thought, equal to the wind in speed, master of the senses, foremost among the wise — to the wind-born son, chief of the monkey hosts, Śrī Rāma's envoy: I take refuge.”
