Shani Kavacham Lyrics in Sanskrit

श्रृणु त्वं कवचं देव शनेः सर्वार्थसाधकम्। नीलाम्बरो नीलवपुः किरीटी गृध्रस्थितः। चतुर्भुजः सूर्यसुतः सदा मम प्रसन्नतां कुरु॥ पूर्वे रक्षतु मे सूर्यो दक्षिणे भूमिनन्दनः। पश्चिमे छायाजनितः उत्तरे यमसोदरः॥

May the Sun protect me in the East; in the South may the son of Earth (Saturn) protect me; in the West the son of Chaya; in the North the brother of Yama.
