Durga sur sanhaarani,

Shakambhari janani Shive,
rakhana meri laaj॥
Yug yug tak vrat tera,
kare bhakt uddhaar।
Vo hi tera laadala,
aave tere dwaar॥
The Shakambhari Chalisa is a devotional hymn dedicated to Maa Shakambhari,
worshipped as the form of the Goddess who manifested as grain and vegetation to nourish creation during a great famine. Reciting it during Shakambhari Navratri is considered especially fruitful॥
