Who carries Veena, book, rosary and shows sign of teaching and explaining.

Who has reddish eyes, who carries the cub of the deer and looks wearing the holy sacred thread.

I salute that Lord Shiva, who mutually, Who sees embraces the daughter of the mountain,
Sitting on his left lap, who looks at Parvathi who is young, who holds the blue lotus,

And a rosary made of pearls in the hand embracing the Goddess

Kaivalyananda kandhalam Vandhe. ॥ 9 ॥
