In the sacred realm of learning, she resides,

Brahmacharini, devotion her constant guide,

Second in the Navadurga’s radiant parade,

On Navaratri’s second day, her grace displayed.

Parvati, the maiden, with resolute might,

Seeks Shiva’s love, her heart’s sole delight,

Despite her parents’ pleas to change her way,

She embarks on a penance that will forever sway.

For five millennia, she endures and waits,

As love’s arrow strikes, altering their fates,

Kamadeva’s desire ignites Shiva’s fire,

But Shiva’s third eye consumes desire’s desire.

Undeterred, Parvati maintains her pursuit,

Austerities, tapas, she doesn’t dispute,

She walks in Shiva’s path, matching his stride,

This phase is where Brahmacharini abides.

As Prakandasura’s demons launch their attack,

Parvati’s tapas nears its final track,

Lakshmi and Saraswati, they intervene,

Yet outnumbered, the demons remain unseen.

Amidst the chaos, the kamandalu falls,

A deluge of might in the demon-haunted halls,

Parvati awakens, with fiery, fierce eyes,

As Prakandasura’s doom in ash quickly flies.

The universe in awe, her tapas complete,

But Shiva, his praise, he doesn’t readily greet,

In the guise of a Bhramachari, he appears,

To test her wisdom, to calm her fears.

Riddles he poses, she answers with grace,

Her intelligence shining in this divine embrace,

In his true form, Shiva reveals his face,

Parvati’s devotion, his love does embrace.

Brahmacharini’s journey, a testament of might,

In the quest for love, in passion’s endless flight,

As she breaks her tapas with Shiva’s return,

With belpatra and river water, her love does burn.

Brahmacharini, a symbol of devotion so strong,

In her pursuit of love, she truly belongs,

In the divine tapestry of life’s grand design,

Her story forever etched, a love so divine
