Jatatavigalajjala pravahapavitasthale,
Galeavalambya lambitam bhujangatungamalikam |
Damad damad damaddama ninadavadamarvayam,
Chakara chandtandavam tanotu nah shivah shivam ||1||

Jata kata hasambhrama bhramanilimpanirjhari,

Kuhu nishithinitamah prabandhabaddhakandharah |
Nilimpanirjhari dharastanotu krutti sindhurah,

Pathansmaran bruvannaro vishuddhimeti santatam |
Hare gurau subhaktimashu yati nanyatha gatim,
Vimohanam hi dehinam sushankarasya chintanam ||14||
