Lalitha Pancharatnam was composed by Adi Shankaracharya. The five Gems of Sri Lalitambika Devi, the mother of the Universe. Those who chants this stotra daily with devotion will be blessed by divine Mother with Knowledge, wealth, Fame and anything. Divine mother who is very compassionate to her children will always protect those who surrendered themselves at her Lotus feet with unconditional devotion. Almost anything in the world can be achieved by the Grace of Devi. Since Devi is the Mother of the entire Universe she cannot refuse or neglect the prayers of her children. Devi is not the giver of worldly things only but gives the highest purushardha-Moksha also.
Yatrasti bhogo na cha tathra moksho
Yatrasti moksho na cha tatra bhoga
Yatrambikasevanatatparanaam
Bhogascha mokshascha Karastha Yeva.
Where there is a will for Bhoga (worldly pleasures)
there is no place for Moksha (Liberation)
Where there is a will for Moksha, there is no place for bhoga
But Where there are devotees who worship Lalitha devi in devotion, there is opportunity in plenty for both Bhoga and Moksha!
Lyrics of Lalitha Pancharatnam
Pratha smarami Lalitha vadanaravindam,
Bimbadaram pradhula maukthika shobhi nasam,
Aakarna deerga nayanam mani kundaladyam,
Mandasmitham mruga madojjwala phala desam.
Bimbadaram pradhula maukthika shobhi nasam,
Aakarna deerga nayanam mani kundaladyam,
Mandasmitham mruga madojjwala phala desam.
I meditate in the morning,
On the lotus face of Lalitha,
Whose lips are red as the pomegranate,
Who has nose shining like a pearl,
Whose beautiful long eyes which extend to the ears,
Who has ear drops made of very precious gems,
Who has a very subtle pleasant smile,
Her forehead glows with a mark of perfume.
Prathar Bhajami Lalitha Bhuja kalpa vallim,
Rathnanguleeya lasathanguli pallavadyam,
Manikhya hema valayangadha Shobha maanam,
Pundreshu Chapa kusumeshu sruneen dadhanam.

Her forehead glows with a mark of perfume.

I salute Lalitha devi in the morning, whose hand
Is like a wish giving climbing plant,
Who wears shining gem studded rings,
Who wears golden bangles with precious stones,
Who holds a bow of flowers,
And who has a goad in her hands.
Prathar namami lalitha charanaravindam,
Bhakteshta dana niratham bhava sindhu potham,
Padmasanadhi sura nayaka poojaneeyam,
Padmangusa dwaja sudarsana lanchanadyam.

And who has a goad in her hands.

I worship in the morning,
The lotus like feet of Lalitha,
Which blesses her devotees with their wishes,
Which is a boat which helps them cross the samsara,
And who is worshiped by leaders of devas.
Sitting in the lotus posture,
And who holds lotus, goad, flag
And the wheel in her hands.
Pratha sthuthave parasivaam lalithaam bhvaneem,
Trayyanha vedhya vibhavam karunanan vadhyam,
Viswasya srushti vilaya sthithi hethu bhootham,
Visweswareem nigama vang mana sathi dhooram.

I pray in the morning, that Lalitha
Who is the supreme giver of life,
Who is the Devi who is the slayer of arrogance,
Whose power and protection resides in the Vedas,
Who is the pure and auspicious form of mercy,
Who is the cause of creation, sustenance and destruction,
Beyond scripture, speech, mind and intellect.
Prathar vadami lalithe thava punya nama,
Kameswarethi, kamalethi Maheswareethi,
Sri shambhaveethi jagatham janani parethi,
Vag deva thethi vachasa tripureswareethi.
I repeat in the morning your holy names, Lalitha,
As the Devi of passion and love,
As one who sits on the lotus,
As the Supreme Deity,
As the Mother of the world,
As the Devi of words and languages,
And as the one who is the Devi of the three cities.
Ya sloka panchakam idham, Lalithambikya,
Soubhagyuam, sulalitham patathi prabhathe,
Thasmai dadathi lalitha jadithi prasanna,
Vidhyaam sriyam vimala soukha manantha keerthim.
those who reads these five stotras,
In the morning , extolling the mother Lalitha,.
Who is easy to be pleased
Would get good luck, knowledge, wealth, endless fame
By the grace of Devi Lalitha.
