Translation
1. Sitting on the top of the Kailasa mountain Pravathi in return asked Shankara who is the teacher of all devas as well as the universe.
Parvathi asked:-
3. Oh God, Oh deva of devas, Oh lord of the pleasure of the devas,
Oh Great God, please tell me that secret, if it is permitted,
By which enemies can be destroyed and souls can be protected,
As I want it from your word as you are the incomparable God.

Bhairava told:-
4. I am seeing you who is the great goddess who formulated all Dharmas,
And would tell you that wonderful armour of the Goddess which helps to fulfill all wishes.
5. Specially it destroys all enemies and protects all beings, and pacifies all problems and destroys all great dangers.
6. It leads to pleasures, makes available enjoyments and also results in great attraction, and it reduces the number among groups of enemies and they would all be affected by illness.
7. For those with sorrows or fever or those with selfish enemies, a reading of the armour of Kalika grants enjoyment and salvation
Om for the armour of Mahakali, the sage is Bhairava, the meter is anushtup, the Goddess is Maha Kali and it is being read to kill all ones enemies.

Meditative verses.

8. I meditate on that Kali, who is a great enchantress, has three eyes, Who has several forms, who has four hands, Who has a wagging toungue, and who resembles the full moon in her form.
9. She is of the colour of the petal of the flower of the blue lily, She drives away the enemy crowd and she carries in her hand, the headless corpse of men and carries a sword, lotus flower and shows the hand in form of blessing.
10. She is without any fear, has a blood drenched face, She is fierce looking, She is worshipped by saints,
She is Sitting on yogic pose, She is goddess who is everywhere, and has a clothing resembling the eight directions.
11. Meditating on Mahakali as sitting in the yogic pose of corpse, and decorating herself with a garland of severed heads, You have to read this armour.

Armour
12. Oh Kalika who has a fierce form and who is pure and fulfills all our wishes.
Oh Goddess who is prayed by all gods, destroy all my enemies.
13. Om Goddess of the form of “Hreem and Hreem”
And also Goddess of the form of “Hraam, hreem and Hraam”,
And also the Goddess of the form, “Hraam, hreem, Kshom and Kshoum”,
Always scatter my enemies to far off places.
14. Oh Goddess whose form is “Sreem Hreem Iym” and who releases us from ties of this world,
Oh Goddess whose from is “Hoom”, Oh great Kali, please protect me always.
15. Oh Goddess who killed Shumbhasura and then the great asura called Nishumbha,
I salute you, who is Kalika and one dear to Lord Shiva for destruction of my enemies
16. Oh Brahmi, Oh Shaivi, Oh Vaishnavi, Oh Varahi, Oh Narasimhi,
Oh Kaumari, oh Iyndree, Oh Chamunda please eat away those who hate me.
17. Oh goddess of devas. Oh one with fierce form. Oh killer of Chanda and Munda,
Oh One who wears garland of severed heads, Always protect me from every one.
18. Oh Kalika who is “Hreem, hreem, hreem”, who is terrible,
Oh goddess who likes blood in her teeth,whose mouth is full of blood,
And whose breasts are drenched in blood.
19. Eat, eat, trouble, trouble, kill, kill, tear, tear, break, break,
Tear, tear, ruin, ruin, erode, erode, enfeeble, enfeeble, All my enemies.
20. Hraam, Hreem, I am submitting my enemies to you, Oh Kalika.
21. Om victory, victory, praise, praise, fry, fry, beat, beat, attract, attract, kill,kill, Annihilate my enemies, destroy, destroy, eat, eat, break, break the demons and asuras, Oh Chamunda, Put under my control all people including kings and ladies. Give me grain, wealth, horses, elephants, gems, divine damsels, sons and the wealth like a king. And now Kshaam ksheem kshum ksaim kshoum Kshaa swaha
22. If this armour which had been composed by Lord Shiva in ancient times,
Is read, then certainly all our enemies would be destroyed.
23. His enemies, with the speed of flood would be affected by disease,
And his enemies will always be weak and without sons.
24. Those who read it one thousand times would get mastery,
And his jobs would be very easily done like the talk of Lord Shiva.
29. Apart from resulting in destruction of enemies, this prayer,
Can attract people, result in great wealth and increase, the number of your sons and grand sons.
30. If read in the morning or at the time of worship,
Or in the evening, it is definite that you would get occult powers.
31. Chanting it against enemies, you would be able to free your country,
And later make them your slaves. This no doubt is the truth.
32. I salute you Kalika who is the goddess who kills the enemies,
Who is capable of blessing with all type of wealth,
Who is auspicious and is the prayed by all devas.
Thus ends the armour of Kali which occurs in Rudra Yamala.
