Jai teri ho Skand Mata, paanchvan naam tumhara aata
Sabke man ki jaanan haari, jag janani sabki mahtaari
Teri jyot jalata rahun main, hardam tujhe dhyata rahun main
Kai namon se tujhe pukara, mujhe ek hai tera sahara
Kahi pahadon par hai dera, kai shahron mein tera basera
Har mandir mein tere najare, gun gaye tere bhakt pyare
Bhakti apni mujhe dila do, shakti meri bigdi bana do

Dusht daitya jab chadh kar aaye, tu hi khand hath uthaye
Daso ko sada bachane aayi, bhakt ki aas pujane aayi
