भवानि स्तोतुं त्वां प्रभवति चतुर्भिर्न वदनैः
प्रजानामीशानस्त्रिपुरमथनः पञ्चभिरपि ।
न षड्भिः सेनानीर्दशशतमुखैरप्यहिपतिः
तदान्येषां केषां कथय कथमस्मिन्नवसरः ॥ १

Prajaanaa meesana tripuramadhana pancha bhirapi,
Na shadibhar senaaneer dasa satha mukhai rapyahipathi,
Sthadanyesham kesham kadhaya kadamasminnavasara. 1

அயனும் முப்புரமெரி அரனும் அறுமுகனும்
சிரம் தசநூறானும் மற்றோர் அனைவரும் 
போற்ற இயலாதிருக்கையிலே, எளியோருக்கு 
எட்டுமா உன்துதி பவானியே! 1

Meaning

O Goddess Bhavani! When Brahma (the creator) with his four faces, Shiva (the destroyer of Tripura) with his five faces, Kartikeya (the army commander) with his six faces, and even Adi Shesha (the king of serpents) with his thousand mouths cannot adequately praise You, then tell me, what scope or chance do other ordinary people have? 

God Bless
