Om Triyambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushtivardhanam Urvarukamiva Bandhanat Mrtyormuksheeya Mamrtat
Terrifying and yet benevolent Where the opposites dwell in harmony O Mahadeva, Praise to thee He is the eye of the storm And the calm after the same storm The Primal Cause, the Effulgent One Om Namah Shivaya Shivaya Namah I bow to the Ancient One,O Rudra Bow to the Ancient One, O Consort of Durga
The King of the Holy Mountains Who dwells beyond the three gunas He is the three-eyed one With the ash-besmeared body The one with the matted locks Who slays the demons
I bow before this wielder of the trident Who bears the Holy River in his matted locks Can't you see the serpent slithering around his neck O Mahayogi O Conqueror of Death The one who walks the cremation grounds garlanded with human skulls O Hara, My obeisance to you
Om Namah Shivaya Shivaya Namah I bow to the Ancient One O Lord of the three worlds Bow to the Ancient One O Consort of Shakti
