Dhana Lakshmi Stotram

Translated by
P.R.Ramachander

(Here is a prayer addressed to Dhana Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. Goddess Parvathi asks Shiva, as to how, the poor, the timid and family men can become wealthy. He then teaches her this great prayer, addressed to Goddess Parvathi herself. This indicates that the Goddess Parvathi also can be worshipped as the giver of wealth.)

Dhanadha Uvacha:-

Devi deva mupa gamya neelakandam mama priyam,
Krupaya Parvathi praha Sankaram , Karunakaram. 1

Dhanadha said:-

The goddess went near Lord with the blue neck, who is dear to me,
And with kindness Goddess Parvathi asked Sankara , the doer of mercy.

Devyuvacha:-

Bruhi, vallabha saadhoonaam, daridhraanaam, kudumbinaam,
Daridhra dalanopayamanchasaiva dhana pradham. 2

The Goddess said:-

My dear, please tell me how, the timid, the poor and family men,
Would cross over poverty and get wealth bestowed on them.

Shiva Uvacha:-

Poojyan Parvathi vakhya midhamaha Maheswara,
Uchitham Jagad Ambaasi thava bhoothanukampaya. 3

The God of all, then praised the words of Parvathi,
And told, that it was apt for mother of the world,
To ask this ,as she has compassion to all beings.

Saseetham Sanujam Ramam Saanjaneyam Sahanugam,
Pranamya paramanandam Vakshyeham stotra muthamam. 4

After Saluting Lord Rama, along with Sita, his brothers,
And Anjaneya, I am telling the great prayer with great happiness.

Dhanadham sradhaanaanaam sadhya sulabha karakam,
Yogakshema karam sathyam , sathyameva vacho mama. 5

My words are indeed true that this prayer to the giver of wealth would,
Bless the devoted ones with wealth and all sort of comforts.

Patantha Pataayanthopi Brahmanai asthikothamai,
Dhana laabho bhaved aasu nasamethi daridhradha. 6
