হে দেবী, দুষ্টসকলৰ আচৰণ সংযত কৰাই তোমাৰ স্বভাৱ। তোমাৰ ৰূপ অচিন্ত্য আৰু কাৰো সৈতে তুলনাহীন। দেৱশক্তি হৰণ কৰা শত্রুসকলক সংহাৰ কৰাত, হে সংহাৰিণী, তোমাৰ পৰাক্ৰম প্ৰকাশ পায়; তথাপি শত্রুৰ প্ৰতিও তোমাৰ কৰুণা স্পষ্ট—তুমি এনেয়াই।

Power is presented as dharma-aligned: the Goddess’s strength is not mere domination but the restoration of order, coupled with compassion even toward opponents—an ideal of force governed by moral purpose.
Primarily within Vaṃśānucarita/Carita-style narrative theology (accounts of divine deeds) rather than sarga/pratisarga; it functions as a stuti embedded in the sacred history of Devi’s interventions.
The ‘inconceivable form’ points to Śakti as beyond conceptual grasp, while ‘compassion toward enemies’ signals the non-dual subtext: even hostile forces are ultimately within the Goddess’s field and are transformed/ended for cosmic balance.
