mārkaṇḍēya uvācha
nārāyaṇaṃ parabrahma sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam । prapadyē vēṅkaṭēśākhyaṃ tadēva kavachaṃ mama ॥ 1 ॥
sahasra-śīrṣā puruṣō vēṅkaṭēśa-śśirō'vatu । prāṇēśaḥ prāṇa-nilayaḥ prāṇān rakṣatu mē hariḥ ॥ 2 ॥
ākāśarā-ṭsutānātha ātmānaṃ mē sadāvatu । dēvadēvōttamō pāyāddēhaṃ mē vēṅkaṭēśvaraḥ ॥ 3 ॥
sarvatra sarvakālēṣu maṅgāmbājā-nirīśvaraḥ । pālayēnmāṃ sadā karma-sāphalyaṃ naḥ prayachChatu ॥ 4 ॥
ya ēta-dvajrakavacha-mabhēdyaṃ vēṅkaṭēśituḥ । sāyaṃ prātaḥ paṭhēnnityaṃ mṛtyuṃ tarati nirbhayaḥ ॥ 5 ॥
iti mārkaṇḍēya-kṛtaṃ śrī vēṅkaṭēśvara vajrakavacha-stōtraṃ sampūrṇam ॥
