Vishvambhari Stuti

This hymn is sung usually after performing Mataji's Arti; It is a hymn written in gujrati by an unknown poet. 

It asks Mataji to protect you.  By singing this hymn with devotion and love, you can overcome your worries and fears by admitting your faults to the mother.

  Vishvambhari akhil vishwa tani janeta, 

Vidhya dhari vadanma vasajo vidhata;

Door-budhhine door kari sad-buddhi apo, 

Maampaahi Om Bhagavathi Bhava dukha kapo.  

O Mother which resides in the whole universe, 

The one who resides within me in the form of knowlege;

Destroy the ignorence that exists, 

Surrender O mother in the form of 'aum' destroy all the pains that exist.

  Bhulo padi bhavarane bhataku Bhavani, 

Suzhe nahi lagir koi disha javani;

Bhaase bhayankar vali man na utapo, 

Maampaahi Om Bhagavathi Bhava dukha kapo.

I cannot reach my destiny;

Flames of fear awaken in my mind, 

Surrender O mother in the form of 'aum' destroy all the pains that exist.

  Aa rankne ugarava nathi koi aaro, 

Janmaand chhu Janani hu grahi baal taro;

Naa shu suno Bhagawati shishu naa vilapo, 

Maampaahi Om Bhagavathi Bhava dukha kapo.  

This man does not have a clue how to suceed, 

I'm an earthling of which you are my only mother; 

Hear the cries of this child, 

Surrender O mother in the form of 'aum' destroy all the pains that exist.

Maampaahi Om Bhagavathi Bhava dukha kapo.  

I haven't read the scriptures nor have I listened to them being recited 

I haven't sung your hymns or read about your reality;

  Re re Bhavani bahu bhool thayi chhe mari,

You are omnipotent and omnipresent in the whole universe;

There is no way one can understand your everlasting power, 

Surrender O mother in the form of 'aum' destroy all the pains that exist.

  Paapo prapanch karva badhi vaate puro, 

Khoto kharo Bhagwathi pann hoon tamaro;

Before I sin again, please tell me,

I'm an ignorant child but still I'm yours; 

Make me realize the mistakes I have made, a glowing light of knowlege in the darkness, 

Surrender O mother in the form of 'aum' destroy all the pains that exist.

  Sheekhe sune Rasik Chandaj ekk chitte, 

Tena thaki vividhh taap talek khachite;

Whoever listens and learns your hymns with dedication and a constant mind, 

May their fears and worries burn away;

One who awakens realises and experiences your love,

Surrender O mother in the form of 'aum' destroy all the pains that exist.

  Shri sad-guru sharanma rahine bhaju chhu, 

Raatri dine Bhagwathi tujne bhaju chhu;

Sad-bhakt sevak tana paritaap chaapo, 

Maampaahi Om Bhagavathi Bhava dukha kapo.  

I am meditating on you at the feet of my spiritual guider, 

Day and night I recite your name; 

Accept me as your true disciple and take me, 

Surrender O mother in the form of 'aum' destroy all the pains that exist.

  Antar vishe adhik urmi thata Bhavani, 

Gaun stuti tava bale namine mrugaani;

Sansaarna sakal rog samoola kapo, 

Maampaahi Om Bhagavathi Bhava dukha kapo.  

I am so attached to this body O mother,

When I sing your hymns I bend and bow down to you;

Destroy all the roots of the pains that exist, 

Surrender O mother in the form of 'aum' destroy all the pains that exist.
