Aum Trayambakam Yajamahe, |
|
Sugandhim Pushtivardhanam; |
|
Urva Rukamiva Bandhanaan, |
|
Mrityor Mokshiye Maamritat. |
|
|
|
We worship Shiva - The Three-Eyed (tryambakam) Lord (yajamahe); |
|
Who is fragrant (sugandhim) and nourishes (pushti) and grows (vardhanam) all beings. |
|
As the ripened cucumber (urvarukamiva) is automatically liberated (bandhanaan) from its bondage from the creeper when it fully ripens; |
|
May He liberate us (mokshiya) from death (mrityor), for the sake of immortality (maamritaat). |
|
|
|
We pray to Lord Shiva whose eyes are the Sun, Moon and Fire |
|
May He protect us from all disease, poverty and fear |
|
And bless us with prosperity, longevity and good health. |
