Your nine days of worship
Will fill a divine feelings in me..
Oh Goddess of knowledge Saraswati,
Oh Goddess of power and strength Parvati
Oh Goddess of wealth Laxmi
My each petals of flower of offering
Will recite your thousand names,
In praise of you
Give me the strength.
I don't miss my steps in wrong direction.
My heart doesn't slip away.
I should never forget my aim,
Whatever may come on the way.
Give me the strength and will power
To forgive and forget.
Give me strength to achieve my aim.
Give me patience.
Let not my anger or hatred comes from my heart.
Let my curse never come out for anyone.
The more patience I gather
I will be more peaceful and happy.
How many days left out for me in this beautiful planet.
Just a few days,
Help me to make my stay on this planet worthwhile.
Help me Goddess to spread the message of Peace and Love!
