Who has large matted crown of hair of  reddish brown colour,

I salute that Shiva, who is as white as a stream of cow’s milk,
Who applies ash all over him but is bewitchingly handsome,

Who with half closed eyes sees the side long glance of Gowri.

Yagnagni hothra vara dhooma nikethanaya,
Rik sama veda munibhi sthuthi samyuthaya,

I salute that Shiva, who takes care of a bull and is venerated by it,
Who is served by Sun, moon, The god of rain and the god of fire,
Who lives in places sanctified by the smoke of fire sacrifices,
And who is sung by sages well learned in Rik and Sama Veda.

Shivashtakamidham punyam ya padeth shiva sannidhou,
Shivalokamapnothi shivena saha modhathe.

He who reads this octet on Shiva,
In front of the temple of Shiva,
