ओम देवी स्कन्दमातायै नमः!!
Om Devi Skandamatayai Namah !!
Prathana
सिंहासनगता नित्यं पद्माञ्चित करद्वया।
शुभदास्तु सदा देवी स्कन्दमाता यशस्विनी॥
Aarti
जय तेरी हो स्कंदमाता
पांचवां नाम तुम्हारा आता
सब के मन की जानन हारी
जग जननी सब की महतारी
तेरी ज्योत जलाता रहूं मैं
हरदम तुम्हें ध्याता रहूं मैं
कई नामो से तुझे पुकारा
मुझे एक है तेरा सहारा
कही पहाड़ों पर है डेरा
कई शहरों में तेरा बसेरा
हर मंदिर में तेरे नजारे
गुण गाये तेरे भगत प्यारे
भगति अपनी मुझे दिला दो
शक्ति मेरी बिगड़ी बना दो
इन्दर आदी देवता मिल सारे
करे पुकार तुम्हारे द्वारे
दुष्ट दत्य जब चढ़ कर आये
तुम ही खंडा हाथ उठाये
दासो को सदा बचाने आई
‘चमन’ की आस पुजाने आई
