🌼 English Translation of Shri Bala Mahamala
Om! I bow to the Divine Goddess, the Supreme Shakti, the fierce Chandi, the skull-bearing Yogini, the one who laughs thunderously,
residing in the sacred Odiyana Peetha. Come forth to this great seat, O powerful one, O Shriṁ Hrīṁ Aiṁ Sauḥ, the accomplisher of all objectives,
Yogini seated in the sacred seat of Yoga, three-syllabled one, dweller in the triangle (symbol of Shakti),
remover of disturbances caused by ghosts, epileptic seizures, spirits, demons, and negative energies.
Aiṁ! Come to me, empower me with the body of thunderbolt along with my sons, friends, wife, family, brothers, and attendants.
Protect us at our homes, in the royal house, during deep sleep, in waking state, in all directions, inside and outside.
Destroy all fears and doubts.
O one-lettered, two-lettered, three-lettered, and five-lettered Goddess, ward off the untimely death and time itself.
Bind the negative forces, cause them to flow out, consume them. You who are pleased by the Odiyana Peetha, Jalandhara Peetha, and Kamagiri Peetha,
grant us your blessings.
Destroy all fevers, whether one-day, two-day, three-day, or four-day. Rebuke all obstacles.
Destroy poison-induced fevers. Aiṁ! Come forth like Indra’s thunderbolt, Yama’s staff, and Garuda’s wind,
O Mahakali in form, drive away all evils and misfortunes.
Make us fearless. Protect me. Make me fearless. Bestow upon me all knowledge and eloquence.
Aiṁ Klīṁ Sauḥ Klīṁ Aiṁ! Make everyone favorable to me. Burn away my sins. Huṁ Phat Svaha!
