Doha 235
जानि कठिन सिवचाप बिसूरति। चली राखि उर स्यामल मूरति॥ प्रभु जब जात जानकी जानी। सुख सनेह सोभा गुन खानी॥१॥
परम प्रेममय मृदु मसि कीन्ही। चारु चित्त भीतीं लिखि लीन्ही॥ गई भवानी भवन बहोरी। बंदि चरन बोली कर जोरी॥२॥
जय जय गिरिबरराज किसोरी। जय महेस मुख चंद चकोरी॥ जय गजबदन षडानन माता। जगत जननि दामिनि दुति गाता॥३॥
नहिं तव आदि मध्य अवसाना। अमित प्रभाउ बेदु नहिं जाना॥ भव भव बिभव पराभव कारिनि। बिस्व बिमोहनि स्वबस बिहारिनि॥४॥
Meaning
Drooping at the thought of the unyielding bow of Śiva, She proceeded with the image of the swarthy form in Her heart. When the Lord perceived that Jānakī, a fountain of bliss, affection, grace and goodness, was going, (1) He sketched Her on the sheet of His heart with the soft ink of supreme love. Sītā then went to Bhavānī’s temple again and, adoring Her feet, prayed to Her with folded hands: (2) “Glory, all glory to You, O Daughter of the mountain-king Himācala! Glory to You, who gaze on the countenance of the great Lord Śiva as a Cakora bird on the moon. Glory to You, O Mother of the elephant-headed Gaṇeśa and the six-faced Kārtikeya and mother of the universe, with limbs shining as lightning. (3) “You have no beginning, middle or end; Your infinite glory is a mystery even to the Vedas. You are responsible for the birth, maintenance and destruction of the universe; You enchant the whole universe and carry on Your sports independently of others. (4)
पतिदेवता सुतीय महुँ मातु प्रथम तव रेख। महिमा अमित न सकहिं कहि सहस सारदा सेष॥२३५॥
Meaning
“Of all virtuous women who adore their husband as God, Mother! You rank foremost. Your immeasurable greatness is more than a thousand Sarasvatīs and Śeṣas could tell. (235)
