Refrain: I bow to you, I bow to you, O Mahalakshmi, I bow to you.

1) I bow to you O Mahamaya, the one who resides in Sripetha and is worshipped by Suras (devas). The one who holds Shanka (conch), Chakra (disc) and Gadha (mace) in her hands — I bow to her, the Goddess Mahalakshmi.

2) I bow to you, who mounts on Garuda, who destroyed the demon Kolasura. The Goddess who removes all sins — O Mahalakshmi I bow to you.

3) The one who knows everything, bestower of all the boons, whose name frightens the wicked. The Devi who removes all the miseries and sorrows — O Mahalakshmi I bow to you.

4) The giver of skills, intelligence, worldly pleasures, and liberation. The one who is always an embodied form of mantra — Goddess Mahalakshmi I bow to you.

5) The Devi who is infinite and represents the primordial energy, Maheshwari. One who is born out of yoga and is in the minds of all yogis — I bow to you Goddess Mahalakshmi.

6) The one present in gross, subtle, and fearsome forms. That great energy saves the universe by keeping it in her great womb. O Devi, the remover of the great sins — I bow to you Goddess Mahalakshmi.

7) The Devi seated on a lotus in the Padmasana position, whose form represents the supreme being. O supreme one and the mother of the universe — Mahalakshmi, I bow to you.

8) The one who wears white clothing and is adorned with jewels and various ornaments. Who preserves and protects the worlds, the mother of the universe — Goddess Maha Lakshmi, I bow to you.

Phalashruti: The one who recites this Mahalakshmi Ashtakam stotram with devotion will attain all siddhis and high status always. Reciting it once daily destroys all great sins. Reciting it twice daily grants wealth and grains. Reciting it thrice daily destroys enmity and hatred, and Goddess Mahalakshmi is pleased and gives all boons and good luck.
