Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
विशुद्धौ ते शुद्धस्फटिकविशदं व्योमजनकं

शिवं सेवे देवीमपि शिवसमानव्यवसिताम् ।

ययोः कान्त्या यान्त्याः शशिकिरणसारूप्यसरणे-

विधूतान्तर्ध्वान्ता विलसति चकोरीव जगती ॥ 37 ॥
Roman Transliteration (IAST)
Vishuddhou the shuddha sphatika visadham vyoma janakam Shivam seve devimapi siva samana vyavasitham Yayo kaanthya sasi kirana saaroopya sarane Vidhoo thantha dwarvantha vilamathi chakoriva jagathi
English Scholarly Translation
I bow before the Shiva , Who is of the pure crystal form, In thine supremely pure wheel And who creates the principle of ether, And to you my mother, Who has same stream of thought as Him. I bow before you both, Whose moon like light, Forever removes the darkness of ignorance, Forever from the mind, And which shines like the Chakora* bird , Playing in the full moon light. 37
