Children indeed do commit a number of blunders at every step. Who else in this world can bear with them except the Mother?

O Mother Durga! Do not remain indifferent to your children in distress. Who in the world will protect the children that have been forsaken by their mother?

O Mother of the World! Henceforth shower such compassion that will remove at once the grave dangers faced by this nation. Make this supplication of mine fruitful.

Are there not many devatas who are engaged in protecting people who are free of sins? O Mother, I however have not observed anyone but Thee who has avowed to protect those who are full of blemishes.
