Sankaraa naadha shareeraa paraa

veda vihaaraharaa jeeveshwara (2 times)

[Sankara! O wonderful embodied form of the unmanifest cosmic vibration, Om! (you are the universe). Hara(Shiva), You are the very abode of the sacred

Vedas, and the Lord of all life forms.]

Praanamu neevani gaaname needani

praaname gaanamani

mouna vichakshana gaana vilakshana

raagame yogamani (2 times)

[You are the life on earth. Songs are Your creation. Life is like a song. Silent introspection enlightens us to the truth that singing divine songs is a way to reach

the higher spiritual elevation.]

Naadhopaasana chesina vaadanu

nee vaadanu nenaithe (2 times)

[I will sing Your glories forever, I would like to be called Your faithful servant.]

Dhikkarendrajita himagirindrajita sita

kantha ra neelakanta raa

kshudhrulerugani rudraveena

nirnidhra gaanamidi avatarinchara vini tarinchara (Sankaraa)

[O Lord Sankara, the lord of all directions, the one who resides on the lofty peaks of the Himalayas! O Lord, who is handsome because of a beautiful Blue

coloured throat (because he swallowed the most dangerous poison to save this universe)! My song is like the eternal music from Rudraveena about which

demons would not know, please come here, listen and enjoy the song.]

Merise merupulu murise pedavula

chiru chiru navvulu kavolu

urimey urumulu sari sari natanala

siri siri muvvalu kavolu

[The dazzling lightning is, perhaps the smile of response (of my praise) on Your lips. The roaring thunders are perhaps the chimes from Your golden anklets

while You dance in tune (to my song).]

Paravashaana sira suvuganga

dharaku jaarenaa shiva gangaa (2 times)

Naa gaanala harinu munugangaa

Aananda vrishtine tadavangaa


[Mesmerized by my song, You nodded Your head blissfully, and the holy river Ganga, bound in Your dreadlocks slipped to Your forehead (and therefore onto

the Earth, in the form of torrent). While You were immersing yourself in my song, I soaked in the happy rain (your blessings) which showered onto the

Earth.]
