Shiva bhajans

[ScottMalaysia]

I got this idea from Krsna Das' thread on Vaishnava bhajans. I'd like anyone who can to post bhajans in praise of Lord Shiva.

I'll start

Kapur Gauram
Kapur gauram karunaavataaram,
Sansaar saaram bhujgendra haaram,
Sadaa vasantam hridayaa ravinde,
Bhavam Bhavaani sahitam namaami

White as camphor,compassion incarnate
Essence of the universe,wearing a garland of snakes,
Ever residing in the lotus of my heart,
To Shiva and the Goddess Mother together I bow

He Shiva Shankara

He Shiva Shankara Namami Shankara
Shiva Shankara Shambho
Hey Girijapati Bhavani Shankara
Bhavani Shankara
Shiva Shankara Shambho

O Lord Shiva Shankara! O Lord of Girija and Bhavani! I bow to Thee.

Namaste, scott

Great thread.One of My favourite is ending lines from Sri Annapoorna devi Ashtakam .

Anapurne sadapurne shankarapranavallabhe
Gyanavairagyasiddhyartham bhiksham dehi cha parvati

Oh! mother Parvati! Annapurna! always full, dearer than life to lord shiva, grant us alms for the sake of securing knowledge and detachment.


Mata cha parvati devi pita devo maheshvarah
Bandhavah shivabhaktashcha svadesho bhuvanatrayamh

Goddess Parvaty is my Mother.
Lord shiva is my father.
All Devotees of lord shiva are my relations.
The whole universe is my country.

You can listen to the song on youtube. Will like to see favourite stotrams or songs from other members to.

"Aum Jai Shiva Omkara"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0_tFX-pG-A

aum jai shiv omkārā svāmī jai shiv omkārā
brahmā vishnu sadāshiv ardhāngī dhārā
aum jai shiv omkārā

Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara, victory to Shiva,
To Brahmā, Vishnu and Sadashiva, partial holders of one body.
Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara.

ekānan chaturānan pañchānan rāje
hansānan garudāsan vrishavāhan sāje
aum jai shiv omkārā

To the one-faced, the four-faced, the five-faced,
To the One whose mount is the swan, the eagle, the bull.
Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara.

do bhuj chāru chaturbhuj dash bhuj te sohe
teeno rūp nirakhtā tribhuvan man mohe
aum jai shiv omkārā

To the One with two shoulders, four shoulders, ten shoulders,
The three worlds take delight in seeing Thine three forms.
Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara.

akshamālā vanmālā rundamālā dhārī
chandan mrigamad sohe bhāle shashidhārī
aum jai shiv omkārā

To the One garlanded in rudraksha beads, in forest flowers, in skulls,
Anointed with chandan and musk, forehead adorned with the crescent-moon.
Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara.

shvetāmbar pītāmbar bāghāmbar ange
sanakādik brahmādik bhūtādik sange
aum jai shiv omkārā

To the One clad in white robes, in yellow robes, in tiger skins,
Worshipped by the Devas, the sages and all beings.
Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara.

kar ke bīch kamandal chakra trishul dharatā
jag karatā jag hartā jag pālan kartā
aum jai shiv omkārā

To the One who holds the waterpot, the discus, the trident,
The Creator, the Sustainer and Dissolver of the world.
Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara

brahmā vishnu sadāshiva jānat avivekā
pranavākshar ke madhye yeh tīno ekā
aum jai shiv omkārā

The non-discriminating know Brahmā, Vishnu and Sadashiva
Are indeed one within the holy syllable Pranava (Aum).
Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara.

triguna svāmījī kī āratī jo koī jan gāve
kahat shivānanda svāmī manavānchhit phal pāve
aum jai shiv omkārā

Whosoever should sing this hymn of the three-fold Lord,
Says Swami Shivananda, he shall receive whatever he wishes.
Aum, victory to Shiva-Omkara.



Jai Sri Krishna
