hṛtpuṇḍarīkamadhyasthāṃ prātaḥsūryasamaprabhām | pāśāṅkuśadharāṃ saumyāṃ varadābhayahastakām | trinetrāṃ raktavasanāṃ bhaktakāmadughāṃ bhaje ||
namāmi tvāmahaṃ devīṃ mahābhayavināśinīm | mahādurgapraśamanīṃ mahākāruṇyarūpiṇīm ||24–25||
我は、心蓮華の中央に坐し、朝日のごとく輝く御方を礼拝する。縄と鉤を執り、柔和にして、施与と無畏を授ける御手を持ち、三つの眼を備え、赤き衣をまとい、信者の望みを満たす女神を。大いなる恐れを滅し、大いなる苦悩を鎮め、その御姿そのものが大いなる慈悲である女神よ、我は汝に帰依し礼拝する。
I worship her who abides in the middle of the heart-lotus, whose radiance is like the morning sun; who bears the noose and the goad, who is gentle, whose hands grant boons and fearlessness; who is three-eyed, clad in red garments, and who yields the desired objects of devotees. I bow to you, the Goddess, the destroyer of great fear, the pacifier of great distress, whose very form is great compassion.
