Rudraashtakam [Shiva Stuti] lyrics

Namaa miisha mishaana-nirvaana rupam

vibhum vyaapakam brahma-veda-svaroopam

nijam nirgunam nirvikalpam niriham

chidaakaasha maakaasha-vaasam bhaje ham

niraakaara monkaara-moolam turiiyam

giraa gnaana gotiita miisham giriisham

karaalam mahaa-kaala-kaalam krpaalam

gunaagaara samsara paaram nato ham

sadaavasantam hridayaara vinde

bhavam bhavaani sahitam namaami
