Har Har Mahadev Om Namah Shivaya Complete English Translation Verse 1 May the Supreme Lord, whose true nature is expressed through the sacred syllable Om, who is praised by the divine speech itself, the Lord of the three worlds, and the indwelling presence within all beings, protect us always. Verse 2 He is the God of all gods, the source of every deity, the supreme sage, appearing at times like one intoxicated with divine bliss. His mighty bull, Nandi, is His noble vehicle, and He graciously grants the cherished wishes of those who seek refuge in Him. Verse 3 Though seated upon the shoulders of Nandi, He transcends all limitations of time, space, and measure. Self-existent and eternal, I bow to Lord Shambhu, the indwelling Self of the entire universe. Verse 4 I worship the Lord who manifests as Sadyojata, who appears in the eight divine forms, who is praised by all beings, and who destroyed Kamadeva. O Lord, protector of righteousness, please protect me today. Verse 5 O compassionate Lord, the cause of the universe, the Lord of Mother Ambika, whose existence depends upon none but Himself, protect me from the threefold sufferings of life and from the fear of death. Verse 6 Even though I have committed many mistakes, please rescue me. You are the greatest physician who cures the disease of death itself. Break the bonds that bind me to worldly existence, O Shiva, and grant me freedom. Verse 7 O bestower of prosperity and nourishment, Your pure white glory spreads throughout all directions. O Lord who bears the sacred Ganga upon Your head, remove my afflictions and protect me always. Verse 8 You are the eternal witness dwelling everywhere. Why then would You not look upon me with compassion? The power of sincere praise removes the fear of death and establishes one firmly in righteousness. Verse 9 O Lord, abide forever within my heart, bestow divine bliss, and protect me from every direction, at all times. #HarHarMahadev #Mahadev #OmNamahShivaya #Rudra #ShivaStotram
