Om Tryambakam yajamahe sugandhim pushhtivardhanam Urvarukamiva bandhanan mrityor mukshiya maamritath. We worship Shiva – The Three-Eyed Lord Whose eyes are the Sun, Moon and Fire Who is fragrant and nourishes all beings; May he protect us from all disease, poverty and fear And bless us with prosperity, longevity and health. May he liberate us from death, For the sake of immortality; As the cucumber is automatically liberated, From its bondage from the creeper when it fully ripens.
