O God of Gods, Mahadeva (Shiva), the blue-throated one, You are worshipped by the Divine Mother Gowri. You are adorned with the moon on Your tresses, You bless the Nandi (the great bull) as Your vehicle. You are full of compassion. You carry the Trident and wear the snake as ornament. With Mother Uma as consort, You are adorned with the third eye and the purest of the Pure. Bless us all at all times.
