Текст песни Равана - Шива Тандава Стротра

Tied around the neck with a wide garland of snakes, onto which falls a clear stream of water flowing from the forest of matted hair, extracting from the damaru [1] the sound DAMAT, DAMAT, DAMAT, DAMAT, Shiva dances a frantic dance of tandava, may He bring us Good! | 1 |
mama || 2 ||;
To (Lord Shiva), Wearing a young moon on top of his head, Whose matted hair is blurred by the streams of the celestial river falling on His royal head, from whose forehead a flame of fire erupts, making the sound DHGAT, DHGAT, DHGAT every moment my love is (turned). | 2 |
May my mind (Shiva) rejoice in Chidambara, Immersed in the game with the beloved daughter of the Lord of the mountains (Parvati), Possessing a Radiant halo, Pleasing the minds of beings, Ceasing with a merciful glance formidable misfortunes. | 3 |
May my mind keep in joyful wonder before the Lord of beings, Whose neck is wrapped around like a liana, a snake, with a shining red gem in a diadem, whose beloved face, smeared with jasmine and kunkum, is visible everywhere, Who is covered with a skin ripped from a mad elephant. | 4 |
May it give birth to long-term prosperity, Wearing a cakora (moon) on the crown of a relative of a bird, Dressed in a red garland of snakes, Wearing twisted hair, Whose feet are red from the stream of pollen falling from the flowers that adorn the heads of the gods bowed in a row, starting with the Thousand Eyes (Indra)! | 5 |
May he endow us with perfections (Shiva), whose flowing hair has swallowed the god of love, incinerated by the flame escaping from his forehead, before whom the celestials bow down, and who wears the moon in his hair, exuding nectar. | 6 |
My love is for the Three-Eyed (God), Incinerated (the God of Love), armed with five (arrows), fire escaping from His forehead with the sound “DHAGAD, DHAGAD, DHAGAD”, the only artist capable of depicting beautiful patterns on the chest of the Daughter of the Mountains. | 7 |
Yes (will endow us with) prosperity (Shiva), bearing the burden of the universe, Decorated with the moon, with a neck as dark as the moon of the new moon, surrounded by clouds, wearing a red skin, washed by the heavenly river (Ganges). | 8 |
I worship (Shiva), Whose neck, illuminated by temple lamps, shines with the glory of blossoming blue lotuses, dark (like the sins of the world), the Destroyer of Smara, the destroyer of Tripura, the Destroyer of (worldly) existence, the destroyer of sacrifice, the Killer of the elephant, the killer of Andhaka, the Destroyer of the Pit. | 9 |
I worship (Shiva), the most skillful in the art of making bouquets of kadamba flowers, attracting bees from all sides with their sweet nectar, Smara Slayer, Tripura destroyer, Destroyer of (worldly) existence, destroyer of sacrifice, elephant killer, Andhaka killer, Yama destroyer. | 10 |
Lord Shiva dances the frantic tandava dance, moving to the beat of the drum of DHIMI DHIMI DHIMI, above his head flames from serpents, wriggling in a glorious dance in the sky. | 11
When will I worship Sadashiva, Who is equally like grass, gazing with lotus eyes at friends and enemies, subjects and the king, jewels and clods of dirt, a garland and a snake, and various things in contact in the world? | 12 |
When will I become happy, reciting the Shiva-mantra, living in groves, caves washed by the heavenly Ganges, free from ignorance, always walking with folded hands raised to his forehead and trembling eyelids? | 13 |
A person who constantly reads, remembers and recites this best hymn will gain permanent purity, quickly gain devotion to Hare and Guru. There is no other way for the incarnated to (freedom) from delusion, except for Contemplation of the Beautiful Shambhu [2]. | 14 |
Whoever reads this song from the ten mouths (of Ravana) early in the morning while worshiping Shambhu will endow Shambhu with the everlasting beauty of Lakshmi, chariots, elephants and horses. | 15 |

Thus ends the Shiva-tandava-stotra composed by Ravana.
