As Anangketu having destroyed the sex instinct As Yogishwar being head of saints distinct As Vidityoga, having attained yogee perfection As many since each soul has distinction They call Thee one being Thyself a class As knowledge incarnate, spotless without karmas They hail Thee Buddha, being venerated by learned many Shankar as bestower of peace in the worlds den, As Narayan being the ideal soul there. My obeisance to Thee O Lord, Thou are the remover of world's misery and pain My respects to Thee O Lord, Thou driest up the ocean of wandering mundane My veneration to Thee O Lord, Thou art the world's beauty and decoration I bow to Thee O Lord Thou are the Lord of the world's population. No wonder the virtues not finding a place anywhere Found in Thee a fit receptacle and reposed there The sins and defects full of pride without care Could not dream of Thee, being accepted every where. Surrounded by spotless halo below the Ashoka tree Thy light focuses upward from Thy resplendent body free The scene is fascinating like might sun's reflection Seen through dark clouds with rays in all direction.

Celestial Beings on Thy person shower From Kalpa tree bunches of flower Sprinkled with drops of water fragrant Touched by breeze with odour incessant. The brilliance of Thy Bhamandal bright Surpasses the most resplendent of light Eclipses numberless suns without their heat Is cool and soothing like moon lit sweet.

A lion who has torn asunder Elephants head with blood flowing under Scattering blood stained pearls on the ground Ready to pounce with growling sound If Thy devotee falls in his clutches Firm in faith him no scratch touches. Fierce fire fanned by ferocious gust Of wind violent as Dooms day motion lust Emitting white flames threatening to devour Whole of the universe in less than an hour Extinguishes and there appears a pool with lotus flowers The recitation of Thy name acts as pouring shower.
