Sadashiva Ashtakam Lyrics Meaning:
Forever salutations to the peaceful one,
Who blesses us with prosperity and who is ever peaceful,
Who resides in the holy building near the tank of the golden lotus,
Who is as brilliant as billions of suns,
Who is liked by he who rides on a bird,
Who lives with Parvathi,
And who wears the snake on his head. || 1 ||
Forever salutations to the peaceful one,
Who blesses us with prosperity and who is ever peaceful,
Who has on his head the river which fell from the sky,
And the piece of moon shedding nectar,
Who has moon, a friend of lotus and fire as eyes,
Who wears snakes as ear studs, || 2 ||
Forever salutations to the peaceful one,
Who blesses us with prosperity and who is ever peaceful,
Who is praised by the four Vedas sung by four faces of Brahma,
Who shines because of his merger with the sister of the four-armed,
Who blesses us with just duty, assets, love and salvation,
And who has a form of the vigorous male dancer. || 3 ||
Forever salutations to the peaceful one,
Who blesses us with prosperity and who is ever peaceful,
Who is very pretty like the autumn moon with a smile,
Who shines with the luster to his face added by his red lips,
Who holds a skull in his one free hand,
And who has got the sister of Lord Vishnu. || 4 ||
Forever salutations to the peaceful one,
Who blesses us with prosperity and who is ever peaceful,
Who gave the holy wheel with the brilliance of thousand solar systems,
To Him who took his own eye to offer to Him,
When he found that one flower was less out of thousand lotuses. || 5 ||
Forever salutations to the peaceful one,
Who blesses us with prosperity and who is ever peaceful,
Who travels in the pretty chariot of earth,
Who uses Lord Vishnu as a powerful arrow,
Who has a bow made of the Mountain Meru,
For which the great snake has been tied as string,
Whose chariot is driven by Brahma,
With the four holy Vedas as horses. || 6 ||
Forever salutations to the peaceful one,
Who blesses us with prosperity and who is ever peaceful,
Who gave protection to those who attended the Yaga of Daksha,
When they started trembling before efficient Veerabhadra with his lion like roar,
And who was the witness to the billions of the universe who heard the roar || 7 ||
Forever salutations to the peaceful one,
Who blesses us with prosperity and who is ever peaceful,
Who took the punishing stick to save the son of Mrukandu from dying,
Whose pretty neck further shines because of the crescent moon,
And who blesses all those who pray for pleasure, wealth and salvation. || 8 ||
Salutations to the ever peaceful God,
Whose lotus like feet are worshipped
By enemies of Madhu and other devas,
Who has the golden mountain as his bow,
And who is the lord of the silver hall. || 9 ||
Salutations and salutations to the handsome dancer,
Who is the great god and lord of town of Madhurai,
Who stopped the poison called halahala in his neck,
And who is the lord of the devi with eyes like fish. || 10 ||
God Told:-
He who reads this prayer composed you with devotion,
Will be given long life, health and wealth by me.
