English Transliteration
Aav aav Maiyaa more ghar aav re,
Navratri ke din dhaam sajaav.
Bhavaani Maiyaa jai jai jaikaar,
Tohre charan men kariin namaskaar.
Singh par sawaar hoke aavelin Maiyaa,
Das haath men shastra leke larelin Maiyaa.
Mahishaasur ke sanhaar kailin Maiyaa,
Bhaktan ke rakshaa karelin Maiyaa.
Laal chunarii pahir ke aav Maiyaa,
Phool maalaa se sajal aav Maiyaa.
Dhoop dip jalaain tohre khaatir,
Naariyal charhaain tohre dhaam men.
Nau din nau raat gaain tohar bhajan,
Man praan se kariin tohar poojan.
Maiyaa ke kripaa se sab dukh jaai,
Ghar men sukh shaanti aur samridhi aai.
