Shivashtakam By Adi Shankaracharya

Atha  Sri  Shankaracharya  virachita  Shivashtakam ।


Thasmai namah  parama karana karanaaya,
Deepthojjwalitha pingala lochanaaya,
Nagendra hara krutha kundala bhooshanaaya,

Brahmendra Vishnu varadaya Namah  Shivaya । 


ತಸ್ಮೈ ನಮಃ  ಪರಮ ಕಾರಣ ಕಾರಣಾಯ 
ದೀಪೋತ್ಜ್ವಲಿತ  ಪಿಂಗಳ  ಲೋಚನಾಯ 
ನಾಗೇಂದ್ರ ಹರ ಕೃತ ಕುಂಡಲ  ಭೂಷಣಾಯ 
ಬ್ರಹ್ಮೇಂದ್ರ  ವಿಷ್ಣು ವರದಾಯ ನಮಃ ಶಿವಾಯ ।೧।

I salute that Shiva, who is the real cause of causes,
Who has reddish brown eyes which shine like light,
Who wears garlands and ear drops made of the king of snakes,
And who is the one who gives boons to Brahma and Vishnu.



Srimat prasanna sasi pannaga bhooshanaya,
Shailendraja vadana chumbita lochanaaya,
Kailasa mandara mahendra niketanaaya,
Loka trayaarti haranaaya namah  shivaaya ।



ಶ್ರೀಮತ್  ಪ್ರಸನ್ನ ಶಶಿ ಪನ್ನಗ ಭೂಷಣಾಯ 
ಶೈಲೇಂದ್ರಜ ವದನ  ಚುಂಬಿತ  ಲೋಚನಾಯ 
ಕೈಲಾಸ ಮಂದಿರ   ಮಹೇಂದ್ರ ನಿಕೇತನಾಯ 
ಲೋಕತ್ರಯಾರ್ತಿ  ಹರಣಾಯ ನಮಃ  ಶಿವಾಯ ।೨।


I salute that Shiva, who always wears,
The clear moon and the snake as ornaments,
Whose eyes are kissed by the daughter of the mountain,
Who lives in the Kailasa peak and Mahendra mountain,
And who defeats the sorrow of the people of three worlds.




Padmavadatha mani kundala govrushaya,
Krishnagaru prachura chandana charchithaya,
Bhasmanushakta vikachotphala mallikaya,
Neelabhja kanda sadrusaya namah  shivaya ।




ಪದ್ಮಾವದಾತ  ಮಣಿ ಕುಂಡಲ  ಗೋವೃಷಾಯ 
ಕೃಷ್ಣಾಗರು  ಪ್ರಚುರ  ಚಂದನ ಚರ್ಚಿತಾಯ 
ಭಸ್ಮಾನುಶಕ್ತ  ವಿಕಚೋತ್ಫಲ  ಮಲ್ಲಿಕಾಯ 
ನೀಲಾಬ್ಜ  ಕಂಡ  ಸದೃಶಾಯ  ನಮಃ  ಶಿವಾಯ ।೩।


I salute that Shiva, who has neck of the colour of blue lotus,
Who wears ear rings made of Padma raga, who rides on a bull,
Who applies fragrance of aloe and coats himself with plenty of sandal paste,
And who applies ash on his body and wears a garland of opened lotus flowers.




Lambathsa pingala jata mukuta uthkataya,
Damshtra karala vikatothkata bhairavaya,
Vyagrajinambaradharaya manoharaya,
Trailokyanatha namitaaya namah  shivaya. 




ಲಂಭತ್ಸ  ಪಿಂಗಳ  ಜಟಾ  ಮುಕುಟ  ಉತ್ಕಟಾಯ 
ದಂಷ್ಟ್ರ  ಕರಾಳ  ವಿಕಟೋತ್ಕಟ  ಭೈರವಾಯ 
ವ್ಯಾಗ್ರಜಿನಾಂಬರಧರಾಯ  ಮನೋಹರಾಯ 
ತ್ರೈಲೋಕ್ಯನಾಥ   ನಮಿತಾಯ  ನಮಃ  ಶಿವಾಯ ।೪।


I salute that Shiva who is saluted by lords of the three worlds,
Who has large matted crown of hair of reddish brown colour,
Who appears fierce and fearful due to his pointed teeth,
And who is very pretty wearing the hide of a tiger.



Daksha prajapati maha makha nash anaya,
Kshipram maha Tripura dhanava gathanaya,
Brahmorjithordhwaga karoti nikrunthanaya,
Yogaya, yoganamithaya namah  shivaya ।



ದಕ್ಷಾ   ಪ್ರಜಾಪತಿ  ಮಹಾ ಮಖ  ನಾಶನಾಯ 
ಕ್ಷಿಪ್ರಂ  ಮಹಾ ತ್ರಿಪುರ ಧನ್ಯ ಘಾತನಾಯ 
ಬ್ರಹ್ಮೋರ್ಜಿತೋರ್ಧ್ವಗ   ಕರೋತಿ  ನಿಕೃನ್ಥನಾಯ 
ಯೋಗಾಯ ಯೋಗನಮಿತಾಯ  ನಮಃ  ಶಿವಾಯ ।೫।


I salute that Shiva, who is yoga and is saluted by yogis,
Who destroyed fire sacrifice conducted by Daksha prajapathi,
Who quickly killed the great asura called Tripurasura,
And who cut off the fifth head of Brahma, who was proud




Samsaara srushti ghatanaa  parivartanaaya,
Raksha pishacha gana siddha samaakulaya,
Sidhoragagraha ganendra nishevithaya,
Shardoola charma vasanaya Nama Shivaya ।



ಸಂಸಾರ  ಸೃಷ್ಟಿ  ಘಟನಾ   ಪರಿವರ್ತನಾಯ
ರಕ್ಷ ಪಿಶಾಚ  ಗಣಸಿದ್ಧ   ಸಮಾಕುಲಾಯ 
ಸಿದ್ಧೋರಗಗ್ರಹ  ಗಣೇಂದ್ರ  ನಿಷೇವಿತಾಯ 
ಶಾರ್ದೂಲ  ಚರ್ಮ ವಸನಾಯ  ನಮಃ ಶಿವಾಯ ।೬। 


I salute that Shiva, who wears the skin of a tiger,
Who keeps on destroying and creating the world,
Who takes care of the different demons and crowds of sidhas,
And who is served by sidhas, serpents, planets and chiefs of ganas.



Bhasmanga raaga kruta roopa manOharaaya,
Soumyaavadaata vanamaasritam aasritaaya,
Gowri kataksha nayanardha nireekshanaaya,
GOksheera dhara davalaya namah   shivaya. 




ಭಸ್ಮಾಂಗ  ರಾಗ  ಕೃತ ರೂಪ ಮನೋಹರಾಯ 
ಸೌಮ್ಯಾವದಾತ  ವನಮಾಶ್ರಿತಮ್  ಆಶ್ರಿತಾಯ 
ಗೌರಿ ಕಟಾಕ್ಷ  ನಯನಾರ್ಧ  ನಿರೀಕ್ಷಣಾಯ 
ಗೋಕ್ಷೀರ  ಧಾರ ದವಲಾಯ  ನಮಃ  ಶಿವಾಯ ।೭।


I salute that Shiva, who is as white as a stream of cows milk,
Who applies ash all over him but is bewitchingly handsome,
Who is the support for those pious people who take shelter in forests,
Who with half closed eyes sees the side long glance of Gowri.



Aaditya Soma Varunaanila sevitaaya,
Yagnagni hotra vara dhooma niketanaaya,
Rig  sama veda munibhi stuti samyutaaya,
GOpaaya gOpa namitaa nama shivaaya.



ಆದಿತ್ಯ  ಸೋಮ  ವರುಣಾನಿಲ ಸೇವಿತಾಯ 
ಯಜ್ಞಾಗ್ನಿ ಹೋತ್ರ  ವರ ಧೂಮ ನಿಕೇತನಾಯ 
ಋಗ್  ಸಾಮ  ವೇದ ಮುನಿಭಿ ಸ್ತುತಿ  ಸಂಯುತಾಯ 
ಗೋಪಾಯ  ಗೋಪ  ನಮಿತಾ  ನಮಃ  ಶಿವಾಯ ।೮।


I salute that Shiva, who takes care of a bull and is venerated by it,
Who is served by Sun, moon, the god of rain and the god of fire,
Who lives in places sanctified by the smoke of fire sacrifices,
And who is sung by sages well learned in Rig  and Sama Veda.



Shivaashtakam idam punyam yah  paThEt Shiva sannidhou 
ShivalOkamavapnOti shivEna saha mOdatE ।



ಶಿವಾಷ್ಟಕಂ  ಇದಂ  ಪುಣ್ಯಂ ಯಃ  ಪಠೇತ್  ಶಿವ ಸನ್ನಿಧೌ 
ಶಿವಲೋಕಮವಾಪ್ನೋತಿ  ಶಿವೇನ ಸಹ ಮೋದತೇ ।। 
    

Those who reads this ashtakam in front
of Lord Shiva would reach Kailasa  (where Lord Shiva resides)
and stay with Lord forever after death.
