A Melodious Song To Kali English Only 1 PDF
The absence of intrinsic being is your nature; all thought of self is gone.
Laid to rest are all the fictions of the mind.
Luminosity endowed with the highest of all qualities,
Nature of Transcendent Wisdom, to you I sing my praise.

Free of the defilement of emission,
And replete with lunar nectar from the syllable Haṃ!
In the three times you are present, beforehand, now, and in the future.
Perfectly pervading the fourth time. Great good fortune
For the world and beings, you manifest in many emanated forms.
I praise you, you who without interruption are the guide of beings.
Your followers are the ox-faced rakshasis who dwell down in the valleys
And the rakshasis of the highland wildernesses who have heads
Of crocodiles and bears, together with a myriad million black Kali goddesses
Swirling like black tempests—I offer perfect praises to them all!

Forgive my errors and transgressions, my breaches and violations of samaya.
Bestow on me the supreme siddhi of enlightenment, I pray.
This was spontaneously composed as it came to mind by the wrathful hero Pema Yeshe
Dorje in the Indian city of Kolkata, beloved of the Glorious Goddess Pelden Lhamo.
Translated by Padmakara.
