MEANINGS:
Neither mother, nor father, neither relation, nor friend,
Neither son, nor daughter, neither servant nor husband,
Neither wife, nor knowledge
And neither my occupation,
Are refuges that I can depend, Oh, Bhavani,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani. ||1||

I am in this ocean of birth and death,
I am a coward, who dare not face sorrow,
I am filled with lust and sin,
I am filled with greed and desire,
And tied I am, by the this useless life that I lead,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani ||2||

I do not know how to give, nor do I know how to meditate,
I do not know tantra, nor do I know stanzas of prayer,
I do not know how to worship, nor do I know the art of yoga,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani ||3||

I do not know how to be righteous,
I do not know the way to the sacred places,
I do not know methods of salvation,
I do not know how to merge my mind with God,
I do not know the art of devotion,
I do not know how to practice austerities, Oh, mother,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani ||4||

I perform bad actions, I keep bad company,
I think bad and sinful thoughts, I serve bad masters,
I belong to a bad family, I am immersed in sinful acts,
I see with bad intentions, I write bad words,
Always and always, you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani. ||5||

Neither do I know the creator,
Nor the Lord of Lakshmi,
Neither do I know the lord of all,
Nor do I know the lord of devas,
Neither do I know the God who makes the day,
Nor the God who rules at night,
Neither do I know any other Gods,
Oh, Goddess to whom I bow always,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani ||6||

While I am in a heated argument,
While I am immersed in sorrow,
While I am suffering an accident,
While I am travelling far off,
While I am in water or fire,
While I am on the top of a mountain,
While I am surrounded by enemies,
And while I am in a deep forest,
Oh Goddess, I always bow before thee,
So you are my refuge and my only refuge, Bhavani ||7||

While being an orphan,
While being extremely poor,
While affected by disease of old age,
While I am terribly tired,
While I am in a pitiable state,
While I am being swallowed by problems,
And While I suffer serious dangers,
I always bow before thee,
So you are my refuge and only refuge, Bhavani ||8||
