Jai Mahagauri jagat ki maya. Jai Uma Bhavani jai Mahamaya.
Haridwar Kankhal ke paas. Mahagauri tera wahan nivaas.
Chandrakali aur Mamta Ambe. Jai Shakti jai jai Maa Jagdambe.
Bhima Devi Vimala Mata. Koushik Devi jag vikhyata.
Himachal ke ghar Gauri roop tera. Mahakali Durga hai swaroop tera.
Sati (Sat) hawan kund mein tha jalaaya. Usi dhuein ne roop Kali banaaya.
Bana Dharm Singh jo savari mein aaya. To Shankar ne trishul apna dikhaaya.
Tabhi Maa ne Mahagauri naam paaya. Sharan aanevale ka sankat mitaaya.
Shanivaar ko teri puja jo karta. Maa bigda hua kaam uska sudharta.
Bhakt bolo to soch tum kya rahe ho. Mahagauri Maa teri har dam hi jai ho.
