Maa Durga has always been the symbol of feminine strength and the source of divine power. Clips and Pages is proud to present a poem by Mehak Varun, expressing the Enlightening Power of the Goddess Durga.
The Enlightening Power
It’s time, yet, again
to be Durga-the shakti
to embody fearlessness
with unshakeable strength.
To kill today’s Maheshasura
to be the divine power
empowering in itself
the purity and salvation.
The absolute of all creation
destroyer of evil
daring of devils
you are complete, Poorneshvari!
Give us the power, O’ Durga
The destroyer and the preserver
the mother of whole universe
destroy all the fear
make the world radiant.
O’Durga, give us the power
to be resilient, the invincible
teach us the hope to
stride against the tide
still, wrapped with pride.
