mandakini salila chandana charchitaya

nandisvara pramathanatha mahesvaraya

mandara pushpa bahupushpa supujitaya

tasmai ma karaya namah shivaya

He who is worshipped with water from the Mandakini river and smeared with sandal paste,

He who is the lord of Nandi and of the ghosts and goblins, the great Lord,

He who is worshipped with Mandara and many other flowers,

Salutations to that Shiva, who is represented by the syllable "ma"
