śrīdatta stavam

I bow to that Dattatreya, by the mere remembrance of whom ghosts, demons, and evil spirits flee from afar.

I bow to Lord Dattatreya, by the mere remembrance of whose name, misery, sin, affliction, fear, the influence of malevolent planets, and bad dreams are destroyed.

Skin diseases, boils, leprosy, epidemics, cholera, and other illnesses perish; I bow to that Dattatreya.

I bow to that Dattatreya, by the mere remembrance of whom, diseases arising from association, place, or time, as well as contagious ones, are pacified.

I bow to that Dattatreya, whose name brings immediate relief to those embodied beings who are suffering from the poison of snake and scorpion bites.

I bow to that Dattatreya, whose name calms the three types of calamities, destroys various misfortunes, and dispels the fear of cruel beings.

I bow to that Dattatreya, by whose chanting the spells and incantations cast by enemies and the afflictions caused by divine beings are destroyed.

I bow to Dattatreya, the Lord who is the protector from all directions, by remembering whose disciple one immediately recovers what was lost.

Whoever recites this hymn of Dattatreya, the bestower of victory, gain, fame, and desires, and the granter of worldly enjoyment and liberation, becomes dear to Dattatreya.

Thus ends the Datta Stava Stotram composed by Sri Vasudevananda Saraswati.
