Shri Shiva Panchakshara Stotram English

Neeb Karori Baba MaharajjiHe who has snakes garlanding his neck, who has three eyes, whose body is smeared with ash and has the sky as his cloth-I bow to the "Na" syllable of that imperishable Maheshwar's great mantra.

He who has been adorned with Mandar and other celestial flowers, who is the sovereign king of the Pramatha Ganas, and whose body is anointed with the holy waters of the celestial Ganges-I bow to the "Ma" syllable of that Lord Shiva's great mantra.

He who is the resplendent sun of Gauri's lotus-like face, the destroyer of Daksha's sacrifice, the blue-throated Lord, whose banner bears the emblem of a bull- I bow to the "Shi" syllable of that Lord Shiva's great mantra.
