TRANSLATION:

 

Panch & #257;kshara Stotram

 

Hymn of the Penta-Syllabic

 

(na-ma-shi-vA-ya)

 

By Adi Shank & #257;r & #257;charya

 

To the One embodied in the syllable na, adorned with a serpent garland;

 

To the three-eyed Lord, besmeared with ashes, to the great Ruler over all;

 

To that eternal One, who is pure and sky-clad, salutations be unto Shiva. ||1||

 

To the One embodied in the syllable ma, honored with the waters of

Mand & #257;kini and anointed with the paste of sandalwood;

 

To the Lord of Nandi, the Bull, who rules over all the hosts of tormentors;

 

To that great Lord worshipped with myriad flowers, with Mand & #257;ra flowers;

 

To that ever-blissful One, salutations be unto Shiva. ||2||

 

To the One embodied in the syllable shi, who, like the Sun, causes the lotus

face of Gauri (Shakti) to blossom;

 

To the Destroyer of the yajña of Daksha, to the Blue-Throated One;

 

To the Bearer of the emblem of the bull, salutations be unto Shiva. ||3||

 

To the One embodied in the syllable va, venerated by Vasishtha, Agastya, Gautama

and other noble sages, as well as hosts of Devas;

 

To the One whose three eyes are resplendent like the sun, moon and fire;

 

To the Bearer of the Moon-Crest, salutations be unto Shiva. ||4||

 

To the One embodied in the syllable ya, who takes the form of a Yaksha;

 

To the One with matted locks, to the Bearer of the pin & #257;ka bow, that

Primeval Lord;

 

To that effulgent God, the sky-clad One, salutations be unto Shiva. ||5||

 

Whosoever recites this Hymn of the Penta-syllabic in the presence of God Shiva;

 

He will certainly attain the Supreme abode of Shiva;

 

And enjoy everlasting bliss with Him. ||6||
