Durga Chalisa — Doha

Namo Namo Durge Sukh Karani, Namo Namo Ambe Dukh Harani. Nirankaar Hai Jyoti Tumhari, Tihun Lok Phaily Ujiyari.

Durga Chalisa — Chaupai

Sassi Lalaat Mukh Maha Vishala, Netra Laal Bhrikuti Vikarala. Roop Matu Ko Adhik Suhave, Daras Karat Jan Ati Sukh Pave. Tum Sansar Shakti Lay Keena, Paalan Hetu Annh Dhan Deena. Annpurna Hui Jagat Pala, Tumhi Aadi Sundari Bala. Pralaykaals Sab Nashana Haari, Tum Gauri Shiv Shankar Pyaari. Shiv Yogi Tumhare Gun Gaave, Brahma Vishnu Tumhein Nit Dhyaave. Roop Saraswati Ka Tum Dhaara, De Subuddhi Rishi Munin Ubaara. Dharao Roop Narsimha Ko Amba, Pragat Bhayin Phar Kar Ke Khamba. Raksha Kari Prahlad Bachayo, Hiranyakush Ko Swarg Pathayo. Lachmi Roop Dharo Jag Maheen, Shri Narayan Ang Raheen. Ksheer Sindhu Mein Karat Vilaasa, Dayaa Sindhu Keejai Raaj Vaasa. Hingli Ke Devi Maha Mayyaa, Tum Ko Istdev Jag Saaya. Maatangi Dhumraavati Maata, Bhuvneshwari Bagla Sukh Data. Shree Bhairav Tarak Paar Amba, Chhed Chhad Karein Khadag Khamba. Sab Ke Roop Sadaa Tum Dharataa, Kripa Karo Sankat Sab Harata. Peera Sab Haro Devee Tum Haari, Kripa Karo Jagdamba Bhihaari. Dhyaan Dhari Jo Nit Tumhein Dhyave, Pidit Sab Jan Mukti Pave.
