குஜ க்ரஹ பஞ்சரத்ந ஸ்தோத்ரம்

I offer my prostrations to Lord Mangala, who was born from the womb of the Earth, who possesses the radiant brilliance of lightning, who is ever-youthful, and who holds the divine spear (Shakti) in his hand.

I salute the son of the Earth, who is immensely fortunate, the bestower of auspiciousness, the great hero, the mighty warrior, and one who possesses immense strength and valor.

I bow to the one born in the lineage of Sage Bharadvaja, the son of the Earth, who is the ornament of the universe and who attained the grace of all the Devas by circumambulating Mount Meru.

Salutations to You, who holds the great power in Your hand; salutations to You, who wields the shining thunderbolt; salutations to You, who rests Your hand upon Your waist; salutations to You, who always grants all desired boons.

I prostrate before Angaraka (Mars), who has four arms, rides a ram, grants boons, is dear to the Earth, and is adorned with red garlands and red garments.
