॥ Devi Mahatmyam Aparaadha Kshamapana Stotram Meaning in English
॥
O Mother, I know neither mantra nor yantra, nor how to invoke you or how to meditate on you. I do not know your story or your glory or your various postures, and I am not given to weeping in distress. But one thing I know for certain is that seeking shelter under your protection, and following your order, is definitely going to end all afflictions. ॥ 1 ॥
O loving Mother, ensuring redemption to all afflicted, I know not how to worship and neither have I resources nor temperament, for I am callous by nature, nor the special knowledge to conduct your worship. But in rendering service to you, if I have committed any lapses or mistake, forgive me Mother. For there could be a bad child but never a bad mother. ॥ 2 ॥
O Mother, this earth is full of your many simple hearted and even minded children but among them I am the most fickle and of unsteady mind. Rarely there may be one like me. But still, your casting me away is not proper for in this world-there could be a bad child but never a bad mother. ॥ 3 ॥
O Mother of the world. I never rendered any service to you and never did I offer any wealth to you, but still you shower affection on me, because in this world there could be a bad child but never a bad mother ! ॥ 4 ॥
At this age, having left the worship of other divinities due to several problems of service and worries, I have approached you for your grace. Who else but you should I seek shelter in for I have no hope from any other. ॥ 5 ॥
.
Even if one word of your speech falls in the ear of a foolish rascal it is enough to make him utter sweet speech like a seasoned scholar; a pauper to become rich, owning great wealth and enjoying life with all its pleasures until ripe old age. When listening to one word can work such wonders, who can measure the reward reaped by those constantly chanting your name? ॥ 6 ॥
O Mother, if Shiva, who keeps his body smeared with ash; who eats poison for food, who remains naked with tangled hair and a serpent garlanding his neck; and a begging bowl in his hands, is crowned as the Lord of the Universe, then that is only as a consequence of his marrying you, O Goddess ! ॥ 7 ॥
O Mother, with your face bright with moonlight, I neither long for salvation nor for worldly riches nor hope to acquire any proficiency in sciences nor have a yearning for pleasure. My only request to you is to allow me pass my life chanting your names. ॥ 8 ॥
O, Mother! Shayam, (the blue-bodied one), I could not do methodically your puja or prayer with various religious articles (demeaning oneself before the Godgess). Always my meditation was not crystal clear because it had the hurdness. What fault did I have with all these shortcomings? You bestow on me the greatest grace which is only deserving of you. such a merciful mother can give shelter to such an undeserving son.
O, Mother! Durga! The ocean of mercy! I am remembering you because I have got all around me the difficulties. I did not pray before this. Kindly don’t consider this prayer of mine as my wickedness, because the child who is suffering from hunger and thirst, only remembers the Mother.
O, Mother of the universe. I am not surprised, because of your complete grace. A son may do fault after fault, but the mother never ignores him.
O, Mahadevi, Great Goddess, there is no sinner like me on the earth and there is no other person condoning the sins except you. Knowing all this, you do whatever you think is reasonable.
