Oh Chandrashekara (The Lord whose crown is the moon), please protect me. Oh Chandrashekara (The Lord whose crown is the moon), please save me.

The God, who made the Mountain filled with precious stones (Mount Meru) as his bow, who resides on the Mountain of Silver Who made head of the serpents (Vasuki) as his bowstring, who used Lord Vishnu as an arrow The destroyer of three cities (Tripuras), the one bowed by all in the three worlds I seek the refuge of that God Chandrasekhara (God Shiva, who has the moon on his head), so what can Yama do to me?

Whose feet are shining with the flowers and scents of the five divine trees The one who burnt Manmada, Lord of Love, by the fire of his eye present on his forehead Whose body is smeared with holy Ash or Bhasma, the destroyer of sorrows, who lives eternally I seek the refuge of that God Chandrasekhara (God Shiva, who has the moon on his head), so what can Yama do to me?

The one who wears the skin of elephants of great vigor as a cloth on his arms (uttareeyam), that looks enchanting Whose lotus like feet are worshipped by Lord Brahma, who is usually seated on the lotus (Pankajasana), and Lord Vishnu, who is lotuseyed (Padma lochana) Whose matted locks of hair are cleaned by the drops coming from the waves of Akasha Ganga I seek the refuge of that God Chandrasekhara (God Shiva, who has the moon on his head), so what can Yama do to me?

The one close to Kubera, the one who plucked the eyes of Bhaga, who wears the serpents as his ornaments Who has the left part of his body decorated with the body of the daughter of Mountains, Devi Parvathi One with a blue throat, whose hand is adorned with an axe as a weapon, who holds a deer in his hands I seek the refuge of that God Chandrasekhara (God Shiva, who has the moon on his head), so what can Yama do to me?
