The Art of living Singers Bhavanyastakam ( Adi shankaracharya) Lyrics

Na thatho, na matha, na bandur na datha,
Na puthro, na puthri , na bruthyo , na bartha,
Na jayaa na Vidhya, na Vruthir mamaiva,
Gathisthwam, Gathisthwam Thwam ekaa Bhavani.

Neither father nor mother, neither relative nor donor, neither son nor daughter, neither servants nor husband, neither lineage nor knowledge, and not even my age-increment, but O Bhavānī! Indeed, only You are the course of souls in metempsychosis.[1]

Bhavabdhava pare , Maha dhukha Bheeru,
Papaatha prakami , pralobhi pramatha,
Kam samsara pasa prabadha sadaham,
Gathisthwam, Gathisthwam thwam ekaa Bhavani.

I - who is l___ful, who is greedy, who is maddened, and who is always tied by the lasso of worldly-existence - am scared of immense-pain in this ocean of metempsychosis. O Bhavānī! Indeed, only You are the course of souls in metempsychosis.[2]

Na Janaami Dhanam, Na cha dhyana yogam,
Na janami thathram, na cha sthothra manthram,
Na janami poojam, na cha nyasa yogam,
Gathisthwam, Gathisthwam thwam ekaa Bhavani

I don't know the act of giving and also meditation or penance; I don't know tantra (techniques) and also eulogies or chanting; I don't know to honor and also abandoning self into service. [But still] O Bhavānī! Indeed, only You are the course of souls in metempsychosis.[3]

Na janami Punyam, Na janami theertham,
Na janami mukthim, layam vaa kadachit,
Na janami bhakthim, vrutham vaapi maatha,
Gathisthwam, Gathisthwam, thwam ekaa Bhavani.

O Mother! I don't know good deeds or shrines; I don't know salvation and I somewhat understand spiritual indifference; I don't know devotion or penance, but still O Mother Bhavānī! Indeed, only You are the course of souls in metempsychosis.[4]

Kukarmi, kusangi, kubudhi, kudhasa,
Kulachara heena, kadhachara leena,
Kudrushti, kuvakya prabandha, sadaham,
Gathisthwam, Gathisthwam, thwam ekaa Bhavani.

I am always engrossed in bad deeds, in bad company, in bad thinking; I am a bad servant [of Yours] and I lack the conduct of my lineage; I am engrossed in bad conduct, and I have a bad [spiritual]-vision; O Bhavānī! Indeed, only You are the course of souls in metempsychosis.[5]

Prajesam, Ramesam, Mahesam, Suresam,
Dhinesam, Nisidheswaram vaa kadachit,
Na janami chanyath sadaham saranye,
Gathisthwam, Gathisthwam thwam ekaa Bhavani

I don't know Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, Indra, Sūrya, Candra, or someone else. I don't know everyone else, and O Bhavānī, Who is the refuge! Indeed, only You are the course of my soul in metempsychosis.[6

Vivadhe, Vishadhe, pramadhe, pravase,
Jale cha a___e parvathe shatru madhye,
Aranye, saranye sada maam prapahi,
Gathisthwam, Gathisthwam, thwam ekaa Bhavani.

You are my incessant protection in dispute, in unhappy moments, in rage and madness, in foreign-residence, in water-deluge, in fire-outrage, in mountains, or in forests. O Bhavānī, Who is the refuge! Indeed, only You are the course of souls in metempsychosis.[7]

Anadho, dharidro, jara roga yuktho,
Maha Ksheena dheena, sada jaadya vakthra,
Vipathou pravishta, pranshata sadhaham,
Gathisthwam, Gathisthwam, thwam ekaa Bhavani.

I, who is an orphan, who is poor, who is a__ociated with old-age and illness, who has a pale-face, and who is very weak and destitute, is always in the middle of troubles and destroyed. O Bhavānī! Indeed, only You are the course of souls in metempsychosis.[8]
