I bow to Lord Shiva, the form of Nirvana
The almighty, pervasive form of the Brahma Veda.
The transcendental, transcendental, selfless
I worship the sky of consciousness, the abode of the sky.

The formless Omkara root and is the fourth state
The Lord of the mountains, who is transcended by the knowledge of the words.
The terrible, the great time, the time, the merciful
I bow to the transcendental world of virtues.

It was white and deep like a snow mountain
The body is the radiance of millions of minds and beings.
Sphuranmaulikallolini charuganga
A serpent with a shining beard and a moon around her neck.

He had moving earrings and large eyes with brows
He had a cheerful face, a blue throat and a kind heart.
He was dressed in the skin of a deer and wore a headdress
I worship my dear Lord Śiva, the Lord of all.

The tremendous, the outstanding, the proud, the Lord of the gods
The unbroken, unborn, radiant like millions of suns.
The three-speared eradicator, the spear-bearer
I worship the Lord of the goddess Bhavani who is attainable by devotion.

Artless welfare is the end of the age
Purari, always the giver of joy to the righteous.
Chidanandasandoha mohapahari
Have mercy on me, O Lord, have mercy on me, O Manmathari.

Not until the lotus feet of Uma Nath
They worship men in this world or in the next.
Not so much happiness as peace and the relief of sorrow
Have mercy, O Lord, the abode of all beings.

I do not know yoga, chanting or worship
I always bow down to You, Lord Śambhu.
Tormented by the flood of old age and birth
Lord, protect me in distress, O Lord Shambho.

This Rudrashtakam is recited by a brahmin to satisfy Lord Hari
Lord Śambhu is pleased with those who recite it with devotion.

This is the complete Śrī Rudraṣṭakam composed by Śrī Gosvāmi Tulasīdāsa.
