Bhavaya Chandra Choodaya

Oh, consort of Parvati, moon-crested, blameless and virtuous

With black neck, the auspicious one, dreaded by Time itself.
Oh, Lord of the bulls, fearsome and mighty, clad in tiger skin
To you, master of the weapons, consort of Gowri, I offer my salutations.

With body smeared in sacred ash, performing the sacrifice of life
Adorned with a necklace of Rudraksha beads, with hair like the skies
Oh, Lord with the sun, moon and fire as your eyes, I bow to you, who dwells on Mount Kailasa
Whose form is pure, blissful and eternal, and who is the beloved of the gods

Oh, conqueror of death, auspicious one, creator, sustainer and destroyer
Whose three eyes bring peace, and who is the lord of the three worlds

Oh, bearer of the Ganges, moon-crested, consort of Vishnu
Whose fierce gaze consumed the three cities, yet who is the beloved of the gods

Oh, born of Brahma, the all-pervading one, who takes on various forms
To you, the master, I offer my salutations, oh Lord of the five faces

Oh, eternal Shiva, whose form is pure and beyond duality
Who is both gentle and fierce, the great god, I offer my salutations

This auspicious hymn was composed at the behest of Sri Chamunda

Whoever recites this divine hymn to Lord Shiva will attain auspiciousness
