Ek din vat vriksh ke niche the Shankar dhayan main
Sati ki awaz aai mithi unke kaan main

duniya ke malik, mere avinashi tum bhandari ho
devan ka mahadev ho  trishul dhamrudhari ho

Vinay sunkar meri bhagwaan daya to dikhlaiye
Bhagwati ki naam mala mujhko bhi batlaiye

Itna sunakr muskura ker tab bole Girijapati
apne hi namo ki mahima sun.na chahti ho sati

To suno yah naam tere jo manushay bhi gayega
Dinya mai bhogega sukh ant mukati payega

naam jo stotarr tumhara mantar ek so aath ka
jo padega phal payega wo sare DURGA path ka

Lo sunata hu tumhe kitne pavitar naam hai
Jiske padane sun.ne se hote puran kaam hai

Uma in naamo ko jo bhi mere sanmukh gayega
main bharu bhandare uske, mangega jo payega

Navratri shuru 19th March,  Ramnavi 27th March.
Navratri shuru 12th Oct, 21 Oct. Dussehra



'Nav' means 'nine' and 'ratri' means 'night', thus, 'Navratri' means 'nine nights'. There are many legends attached to the conception of Navratri like all Indian festivals but all of them are related to Goddess Shakti (Hindu Mother Goddess) and her various forms. Though it is one of the most celebrated festivals of Hindu calendar, it holds special significance for Gujratis and Bengalis and one can see it in the zeal and fervor of the people with which they indulge in the festive activities of the season. The first three days of Navratri are dedicated to Goddess Durga (Warrior Goddess) dressed in red and mounted on a lion, next three to Goddess Lakshmi (Goddess of Wealth and Prosperity) dressed in gold and mounted on an owl and finally, last three to Goddess Saraswati (Goddess Of Knowledge) dressed in milky white and mounted on a pure white swan.

Dandiya and Garba Rass are the highlights of the festival in Gujarat while farmer sow seeds and thank the Goddess for her blessings and pray for better yield. In olden times, this festival was associated with the fertility of Mother Earth who feed us as her children. Sweetmeats are prepared for the celebrations and children and adults dress up in new bright-colored dresses for the night performances. With commercialization, the festival has moved on to be a social festival rather than a religious or agrarian festival. In some communities people undergo rigorous fasts during this season that lasts for the nine days of the festival, only to be opened on the tenth day of Dussehra. However, nothing dampens the spirit of the devout followers of Mother Goddess as they sing devotional songs and indulge in the gaieties of the season.
