Translated By
P.R.Ramachander
This is the version of the prayer as given in a (/en/A) book in Malayalam. The prayer obviously
belongs to thanthra method of worship (/en/Worship) of the Goddess. An entirely different version
of the Kavacha is given in hindupurohit link.[1]
“O Mother, even a (/en/A) dullard becomes a poet who meditates upon thee raiment with space,
three-eyed, creatrix of the three worlds, whose waist is beautiful with a girdle made of numbers of
dead men's arms, and who on the breast of a corpse, as thy couch in the cremation (/en/Cremation)
ground, enjoyest Mahākāla - Karpurādistotra, VII (Woodroffe tr)
Parvathyuvacha:-
Parvathi asked:-
I am seeing you who is the great goddess who formulated all Dharmas,
And would tell you that wonderful armor of the Goddess which helps to fulfill all wishes.
It leads to pleasures, makes available enjoyments and also results in great attraction,
And it reduces the number among groups of enemies and they would all be affected by illness.

Oh Kalika who has a fierce form and who is pure and fulfills all our wishes.
And also the Goddess of the form, “Hraam, hreem, Kshom and Kshoum”,
Oh Goddess whose form is “Sreem Hreem Iym “ and who releases us from ties of this world,
Oh Goddess who killed Shumbhasura and then the great asura (/en/Asura) called Nishumbha,
I salute you, who is Kaalikaa and one dear to Lord Śiva (/eng/index.php?
title=Lord_%C5%9Aiva&action=edit&redlink=1) for destruction of my enemies
Oh Kaumari , oh Iyndree , Oh Chamunda please eat away those who hate me.
Oh goddess of devas. Oh one with fierce form . Oh killer of Chanda and Munda,
Oh One who wears garland of severed heads , Always protect me from every one.
Oh goddess who likes blood in her teeth, whose mouth is full of blood,

I am not translating these slokas as I am not at all conversant with Thanthric forms of worship
(/en/Worship) of the Goddess and I may give a wrong and dangerous import to these verses.
Can attract people, result in great wealth and increase, the number of your sons and grand sons.
And later make them your slaves. This no doubt is the truth.
I salute you Kalika who is the goddess who kills the enemies,
