Lord Shiva is my refuge: he who grants
Freedom from the cycle of birth and death.
Lord Shiva is my refuge: he who gave
The sacred scriptures at the dawn of time.
Lord Shiva is my refuge: he who is
The source of purity and perfection.
Lord Shiva is my refuge: he who is
The bridge from death to immortality.
Lord Shiva is my refuge: he whose grace
Has made me long for his lotus feet.
