Skanda Purana — Kashi Khanda, Shloka 60

Devanagari script

मातस्तवांघ्रियुगलं विमलं हृदिस्थं यस्यास्ति तस्य भुवनं सकलं करस्थम् । यो नामतेज एति मंगलगौरि नित्यं सिद्ध्यष्टकं न परिमुंचति तस्य गेहम्

Transliteration

mātastavāṃghriyugalaṃ vimalaṃ hṛdisthaṃ yasyāsti tasya bhuvanaṃ sakalaṃ karastham | yo nāmateja eti maṃgalagauri nityaṃ siddhyaṣṭakaṃ na parimuṃcati tasya geham

Translation

Mère, celui qui porte en son cœur Tes deux pieds sans tache, pour lui l’univers entier est comme posé dans la paume de la main. Et, ô Maṅgalāgaurī, celui qui chaque jour s’approche de la splendeur de Ton Nom, les huit siddhis ne quittent pas sa demeure.
