Hail Mother Brahmacharini, giver of joy, dear to four-faced Brahma. She pleases Brahma and teaches knowledge to all, and the whole world chants her mantra. She is hailed as Gayatri, mother of the Vedas. Whoever meditates on her day and night lacks nothing and suffers no sorrow, and whoever knows her glory keeps a steady, detached mind. To one who chants your mantra on a rudraksha mala with faith and sings your praise without laziness, Mother, bring happiness. Brahmacharini is your name: complete all my tasks. Your devotee worships at your feet. Protect my honour, Mother.
