She, Who Devoured Raktabija Lyrics

Purvaja She, Who Devoured Raktabija

From the brow of fury of Maa Durga
She emerges
Naked and black with entangled hair
Eyes blood red with anger
And a third eye flaming between her forehead
She appears the most frightening
Om Kreem Kalikaye namah
The dark goddess who devoured all the asuras
Om Kreem Kalikaye naham
The dark goddess who devoured Raktabija
Bearing the Khatvanga, sword and noose
She filled the skies with her shrieks
Petrified they fell down dead to her feet
Lolling her tongue she swallowed
Not a drop of blood she let fall onto the ground
No more demons could spawn
Om Kreem Kalikaye namah
The dark goddess who devoured all the asuras
Om Kreem Kalikaye namah
The dark goddess who devoured Raktabija
Drunken with the blood of victory
She adorned herself with a garland of heads decapitated and danced
The dance that shook all lokas
