शरण्ये वरेण्ये सुकारुण्यपूर्णे हिरण्योदराद्यैरगम्येऽतिपुण्ये भवारण्यभीतं च मां पाहि भद्रे नमस्ते नमस्ते नमस्ते भवानि ॥१५॥

Word breakdown

शरण्ये वरेण्ये सुकारुण्यपूर्णे
O refuge, O worthy of choice, full of great compassion,
हिरण्योदराद्यैरगम्येऽतिपुण्ये
unreachable even by Hiranyagarbha and the rest, supremely holy,
भवारण्यभीतं च मां पाहि भद्रे
afraid in the forest of becoming, protect me, O gracious one,
नमस्ते नमस्ते नमस्ते भवानि
salutations, salutations, salutations to you, Bhavani.

The forest of samsara is fear only while the Mother is forgotten. Triple salutation is the mind's final rest in her, who is nearer than fear and vaster than the worlds that frighten.
