“॥दोहा॥
श्रीगुरु चरन सरोज रज, निज मनु मुकुरु सुधारि।
बरनउँ रघुबर बिमल जसु, जो दायकु फल चारि॥

Doha
With the dust of guru’s lotus feet having,
I cleanse the mirror of my soul sparkling,
Raghuvar’s spotless glory I be singing,
The four fruits of life it ever is giving.

“जटाटवीगलज्जलप्रवाहपावितस्थले
गलेऽवलम्ब्य लम्बितां भुजङ्गतुङ्गमालिकाम्।
डमड्डमड्डमड्डमन्निनादवड्डमर्वयं चकार
चण्ड्ताण्डवं तनोतु नः शिवः शिवम्॥१॥

His neck, with thick forest-like locks of hair, holy by water flowing,
On his neck, as garland whom none pair, lofty snake is hanging,
His `Damaru’ drum with its Damat Damat Damat in air echoing,
Shiv - auspicious Tandava dances - may He prosperity be giving.

“From Brahma Puran

ब्राह्मीं च वैष्णवीं भद्रां, षड्-भुजां च चतुर्मुखीम्।
त्रि-नेत्रां खड्ग-त्रिशूल-पद्म-चक्र-गदा-धराम्॥
पीताम्बर-धरां देवीं, नानाऽलंकार-भूषिताम्।
तेजः-पुञ्ज-धरीं श्रेष्ठां, ध्यायेद् बाल-कुमारिकाम्॥

Meditate on youthful Brahmi* and Vaishnavi* surely,
With six hands, four faces, three eyes gives safety,
With sword, trident, lotus, wheel, globe, mace be,
Greatest – yellow dressed, well decorated elegantly.”

“गु� ��मा, गु� �व�णु, गु� देवो महे�वरःl
गु��सा�ाथ परम ��मा त�मै�ी गुरावेनामः॥
Guru the darkness dispeller, Guru Brahma the Creator be,
Guru Vishnu the Preserver; Guru Shiv the Transformer be,
Guru, the Supreme Being in human form – our savour be,
My salutations, awe, gratitude to that Divine Teacher be.
