English Translation

You are the god, creator of the sages, and Prakriti (nature),

You are the Purusha (primordial male), the Lord,

You are Chaya (shadow) and Sanjna (consciousness), the foundation,

Without support and without refuge, oh Lord.

You are the refuge of all beings, may my salutations always be to you,

You are the god, who are eyes everywhere, the goal everywhere and at all times.

You are all in all times, all in all places,

You are the god, the meditation of meditators, the supreme yoga of yogis,

The destroyer of sins immediately, oh omnipotent one,

You are the lord who destroys all suffering, the compassionate lord.

You are the power of mercy, the abode of forgiveness,

Fierce and benevolent in form,

You are the god, the form of creation, preservation, and dissolution,

The lord of the gods.

You are the heron (Baka), the stork (Shosha), the disease (Vrikadaha),

The burner (tushara) of fiery nature,

Oh Lord who removes the suffering of the surrendered,

Salutations to you, oh embodiment of yoga.

You are the god, the bliss of the heart, the jewel-like brilliance of the head,

The teacher, the reciter, the contemplator,

The receiver and one who grasps, oh Lord.

You are the god, the regulation, the justice,

The judge and promoter of justice,

Impermanent yet permanent, eternal, oh embodiment of justice,

Salutations to you.

You are the god who protects those who have attained the three worlds,

And sustains those who are firmly established,

Who raises the worlds upward,

Oh eye of the worlds, salutations to you.

You are the controller, the unconquerable one,

The accomplisher of the attainable,

The relative of those without relatives,

Salutations to you, oh benevolent one.
