|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||
Oh! Supreme
Lord Shiva/Rajamouli, whose matted hair locks are adorned with the crescent
moon! My ignorance in the heart that was formed as wild obscurity has been
remained aloof by the ocean of your mercy. The intelligence and wisdom
which provides eternal bliss and removes the miseries has been restored in my
heart. I venerate your lotus feet which are capable to provide
prosperity/ the condition of enjoying wealth, success, good fortune and make
available liberty from the cycles of birth and death/salvation.
Oh! Lord
Gauripathi, I have been freed from sins, desolation, misfortune, disasters, ego
and maltreatment, by your grace filled with ultimate compassion. I
repeatedly recite your glorious myth which provides supreme bliss and earnestly
pray to protect me from this birth itself.
Oh! Lord
Girijanatha, Oh! Lord Gauripathi, Oh! Lord Paramashiva, who’s matted hair locks
are adorned with the crescent moon and has blue throat, who is the sole
possessor of this Universe and the origin of ultimate luster, I earnestly pray
to keep my mind successively filled with your glorious myths.
Which
recites or speaks about the glories of the Supreme Lord Shiva/Paramashiva is
called a Tongue, which envisions the glorious form of Supreme Lord Shiva is
known as Eyes, which venerates the idol of Supreme Lord relentlessly is called
Hands and finally who always remember the supreme Lord is labeled as the
liberated soul.
Oh! Supreme
Lord Shiva, Oh! Lord Bhavanipathi, I earnestly pray to remove the doubt that
persists in me about ‘My feet are tender and your heart is extremely
hard’. If so, how it would be possible to conduct journeys through the
woods and hills?
Oh! Lord
Tripurari, who conquered the world of Tripura! I earnestly pray to control my
mind like untamed elephant, with the courageous of goad and chain of firm
devotion, instantly tie on a pillar like your lotus feet with the supreme
knowledge of Brahmam.
Oh! Lord
Parameshwara, My mind is like an untamed elephant wandering restlessly and
aimlessly with all that egos, I earnestly pray to tie my wander lust mind
solicitously with the knowledge of firm devotion.
Oh! Supreme
Lord Shiva, Oh! Lord Gauripriya , who is decked in superior status with finer
jewels, walks with charismatic charm, who has possessed all the virtues and has
golden complexion, who is praised by the virtuous, who has striking qualities,
mesmerizing physical features and boundless compassion, who has possessed the opulence
and promising qualities, I earnestly pray to accept my humble verses in
praising you. Oh! Lord Gauripathi, I earnestly pray to accept the above
verses of Shivananda Lahari which is my maiden poetry that has simple phrases
and enunciation, possessed supreme qualities and praised by the virtuous.
Oh! Supreme
Lord Shiva, Oh! Lord of the ocean of Mercy, Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu has the
intense desire to witness your matted hair locks and lotus feet was disguised
in the form of Swan and wild boar respectively, eventually journeyed through
the sky and under earth in search of you and have undergone several
hardships. Oh! Lord Shambu, Oh! Lord Paramashiva, how are you going to
reveal yourself in front me? Is this fair to you?
Oh! Supreme
Lord Shambu, who is the supreme deity, has no beginning or no end, worshipped
by the deities and Lord Brahma, who is venerated as supreme Lord and praised by
the deities who has the knowledge of you as the excellent in excellence and
assume themselves as the outer cover of a grain, I don’t make any false
statements therefore I conclude praising you.
