॥ gangastakam ॥
na saktastvam stotum vidhiharihara jahnatanaye
gunotkarsakhyanam tvayi na ghatate nirgunapade ।
ataste samstutyai krtamatiraham devi sudhiyam
vinindyo yadvedascakitamabhigayanti bhavatim ॥ 1 ॥
tatha’pi tvam papah patitajanatoddharanipune
pravrtto’ham stotum prakrticalaya balakadhiya ।
ato drstotsahe bhavati bhavabharaikadahane
mayi stutye gange kuru parakrpam parvatasute ॥ 2 ॥
na samsare tavatkalusamiha yavattava payo
dahatyarye sadyo dahana iva suskam trnacayam ।
palayante drstva tava paricaranantakajana
yatha vanya va’nye vanapatibhayad vamanamrgah ॥ 3 ॥
jana ye te matarnidhanasamaye toyakanikam

kada gange ramye tatamadhivasaste sivanute
sive durge matah sakalaphalade devadayite ।
parese sarvese srutisatanute daksatanaye
sada’ham sanjalpannimisamiva nesyami divasan ॥ 8 ॥
gangastakamidam punyam prabhate yah pathecchucih ।
sarvabhistam tatastasmai dadati suranimnaga ॥ 9 ॥
iti svami-srimadanantanandasarasvativiracitam gangastakam sampurnam ।
