Sri   Dharma Sasthru Satakam

Translated by

Sri  Anantha Narayanan  Vaidhyanathan




( This in one of the prayers given in KUlathu Iyer’s Dharma Sathra  sthuthi kadambam)

( I have not attempted a word by word translation.. but I have, I trust managed to be in sync with  the spirit of the author..)

 

शबरिगिरिनिवासं शान्तहृत्पद्महंसं

शशिरुचिमृदुहासं श्यामळांभोजभासम्।

कलितरिपुनिरासं कान्तमुत्तुङ्गनासं

नतिनुतिपरदासं नौमि पिञ्छ्रावतंसम्।  1

 

śabarigirinivāsaṁ śāntahṛtpadmahaṁsaṁ śaśirucimṛduhāsaṁ śyāmaḻāṁbhojabhāsam|

kalitaripunirāsaṁ kāntamuttuṅganāsaṁ natinutiparadāsaṁ naumi piñchrāvataṁsam|

 

I bow with reverence at the feet of the one who is having Shabari mountain as his abode,

 the one who is the Royal Swan keeping company to the tranquil mind of the seeker,

 the one who is sporting the sweet smile  that resembles the soft  soothing rays of the moon,

 the one who is shining forth in the dark hue of a blue-black lotus,

 the one who subdues dissenting murmurs or actions  of his enemies, 

the one who is  attractive in his long raised and well-shaped nose,

the one who considers himself as the servant of those who serve him and are dependent on him

the one who is having beautiful peacock-feathers as his ornaments.

 

शबरिगिरिनिशान्तं शङ्खकुन्देन्दुदन्तं

kṛtanutavipadantaṁ kīrtaye'haṁ nitāntaṁ||2

 

I offer my praises  continuosly and without intetrruption

 To  the one who is relaxing peacefully and happily in the precints of Shabarigiri

To the one who sports a smile brilliantly white like a conch,  jasmine flower and the full moon

To the one who shines incessantly in the hearts of  seekers whose abundance of wealth is tranquility of mind

To the one who is verily Yama the harbinger of death to the huge rows of enemies that would raise against Him

To the one who is as resplendent as the moon, (the enmey of lotus flower blooming in waterfront)

To the one with outer edges of beautiful eyes  shedding glances that are radiating extreme affection and compassion  for the devotees

to the one who has  ensured end and destruction for all  great dangers confronting those who serve Him

 

 

 

शबरिगिरिकलापं शात्रवध्वान्तदीपं

I yearn for the affection of

The one who is the ornament of the Shabari giri

The one who, like a lamp dispels the darkness in the shape of enmity

The one who gives relief to the woes of noble-hearted good people

The one who is not ever attainable for persons who have not mastered to attain inner tranquillity

The one who  holds in his hands arrows made of flowers

The infinite one who has manifested in human form only for some purpose

The one who is wearing ornaments studded with crystals

The one who is glowing with extraordinary brilliance

I meditate upon that being who is existing eternally

The one who is having residence in Shabarigiri

The one who is the child of Shankara the Shiva and Upendra the Vishnu

The one who has shattered to destruction all the Daityas or demons

The one who is like a heavy missile that brings down the huge cloud-like mass of enemies

The one at whose feet Puruhoota, the Indra  falls and worships in supplication

The one who is ever engaged in protection of all Bhutas  and all living beings too

The one who acts like as very safe boat that would navigate us across the ocean of worldly woes

The one who is ever disposed favourably to the occupants of Naaka or heaven, the gods

I offer my humble Pranams to that one and only superior hero and embodiment of boldness

The one who occupies a humble abode  in Shabarigiri

The one who  renders the enemies of Indra so effete and powerless that they just look like mere pieces of grass

The one who is the favourite son of Hari the Vishnu and Gireesha the Shiva

The supremely effulgent  and amazingly potent  ball of energy in the form of divinity that is Shasta has manifested atop the Shabharigiri, after causing a lot of fissures there during such manifestation.  May  that repository of supreme energy while it rises itself  shatter the mass of danger  that has got accumulated on the face of earth .

The glow resembling moonlight emanating  from the toes of Sasta who is the   sum and substance of  the merits of  the enemy of Malla,  Vishnu   and the destroyer of Tripura, Shiva which has taken shape like a moon, gives  great jubilation to my heart which resembles  a lotus. It is indeed strange that moonlight  gives pleasure to lotus.(Normally lotus shrinks when the moonlight falls on it.)

astokakāntidhāraiḥ śāstā sphūrjatkatākṣakaravāḻaiḥ||42

May that Saasthaa  simply chop off  the forest-like growth  of misery that has covered my life with the sharpscimitar that is his sharp  sidelong glance which is shining forth with intense  glow  like the sharp edge of the knife.

May that Shasta chop off and shatter  my enemies  who arise  in hundreds like  the huge boulders that show their heads  piercing the mountain ranges of Shabari. May the Lord apply the chisel of his  intense sidelong glance  for this purpose

May the cruel wayside robbers  in the shape of  fate who are ever attacking me as I am travelling ahead in the journey of life following the Astanga Yoga, as if travelling seated in  a palanquin with eight sentries holding staffs to guard my safety, be attacked, defeated and  held captive.

śrī bhutanātha bhavataḥ svairasukhavāsasamucitaṁ manye||48

 

Oh Bhutanaatha,  you are wandering around the mountain ranges of Shabari and the terrain too tough and difficult to live.  See, our inner selves and minds are very soft and tender in comparison to those tough mountain terrain.  Therefore I would consider it better if you lived happily and comfortably in our minds  instead of living in the tough landscape of Shabari giri

The excellent  elephant trainer who is named Shasta who has subdued the arrogance of numerous elephants in the shape of  Asuras, is now shattering to disarray the group of elephants in the shape  of the soldiers of the enemy fold,  through the use of his very active side glance which  pierces like the fall of sharp hook used to control the huge animals.

May hose divine pair of  feet  of Dharmasasta  shine forth in my heart.   The fresh sprouting leaves  of the Divine wish yielding tree Kalpakavrisha, as a result of years and years of penance,  assumed the beauty and colour of the feet of the Lord  at least to a very little extent, and they gained befetting approbation as wish yielding objects because of their similarity in shape and nature with the comely feet of the Lord.

The broad shoulder area just below the neck of the son of enemy of Kala, Shiva and Bali Nishoodana..the one who subdued the arrogance of Mahabali.. Vishnu,  the shoulder area which is wide and attractive, which is decorated with necklaces or garlands studded with navaratnas or nine types of gems,  may those shoulders shine forth and manifest  inside my  heart.

नळिनं तनोति मलिनं दिनदीपदशाञ्च नयति यच्चन्द्रम्।

हरिहरजमुखस्याहो जाने तस्योपमानमिह नान्यत्॥८०

naḻinaṁ tanoti malinaṁ dinadīpadaśāñca nayati yaccandram|

hariharajamukhasyāho jāne tasyopamānamiha nānyat||80

I do not know  anything  that is  as attractive and beautiful as the face of the son born to Hari and Hara.  A comparison to the beauty of that face  makes the lotus flower ugly and  the brilliant beauty of the moon is just renderes as lacking in lustre as a lamp lit on broad daylight

निरतिशयितसुषमामृतसरसि सुजातमिव सरसिजमुदारम्।

हरिहरसुतमुखकमलं स्फुरतु मदीये हृदये शान्तम्॥८१

niratiśayitasuṣamāmṛtasarasi sujātamiva sarasijamudāram|

hariharasutamukhakamalaṁ sphuratu madiye hṛdaye śāntam||81

May that ever peaceful face of the son of Hari and Hara resembling a full blown lotus  shine forth in the core of my hear..  It is like a lotus that has bloomed with great eminence  in the  lake that is filled with the ambrosia or amrutham of splendid, soft and mellow beauty.

निखिलेशभूतनायकमुखकमलादपगतदोषाच्छशिनः।

दोषाकराख्यताऽभूत् दोषः परिणतः कळङ्कतया॥८२

nikhileśabhūtanāyakamukhakamalādapagatadoṣācchaśinaḥ|

doṣākarākhyatā'bhūt sa ca doṣaḥ pariṇataḥ kaḻaṅkatayā||82

The moon acquired blemishes on its face through the contamination of whatever blemish was attributed to the beautiful face of  the Lord of everything and Bhuthanaatha,  Sastha,  therefore   the Lords face became blemishless and the moons face became marked with blemishes.

नान्वेति चन्द्रमण्डलमाहुर्ज्जगति चन्द्रबिंबमिति।

हरिहरसुतवदनेन्दौ बिंबोष्ठयुते हि चन्द्रबिंबत्वम्॥८३

nānveti candramaṇḍalamāhurjjagati candrabiṁbamiti|

hariharasutavadanendau biṁboṣṭhayute hi candrabiṁbatvam||83

In practive  noe one actually calls the bright orb  of the  moon as the brilliant lunar orb.   Only the attractive face of the sone of Hari and Hara  which shines like the moon with full red lips  is  at present termed as the disc of moon in all its beauty and splendour..

सन्ध्यांबुदबन्धूकस्तबकजनेर्वन्द्यता कृता येन।

हन्त हरिगिरीशसूनोरन्तर्मम सोऽधरोस्तु सन्तुष्ट्यै॥८४

sandhyāṁbudabandhūkastabakajanervandyatā kṛtā yena|

hanta harigirīśasūnorantarmama so'dharostu santuṣṭyai||84

May that  full red lip of the son of Hari and Gireesha  be with me for my extreme happiness.  That lip has   defeated  the beauty of  the red shining cloud appearing in the dust   and the beauty of the Bandhooka flower (Indian Laurel flower) too and the cloud and the flower are actually offering worship to the comely lips of the lord .

स्वपतिविरहाक्षमेयं नक्षत्रावलिरिवास्य चन्द्रमसः।

अन्तर्गतकृतवसतिर्दन्तावलिः शास्तुरन्तरस्तु नः॥८५

svapativirahākṣameyaṁ nakṣatrāvalirivāsya candramasaḥ|

antargatakṛtavasatirdantāvaliḥ śasturanarastu naḥ||85

 

May those evenly formed row of teeth of the Lord Shasta  may ever be in my meditative memory.   The row of teeth have hidden inside the mouth of Sasta like the group of  stars in the sky which have gone on a hiding because they are sad about being separated from their consort, the moon during daytime

 

परिलसतु वदनपङ्कजसङ्गिलसत्कलिकाकृतिरुदारः।

उद्यङ्गरुचिरकोणश्चित्ते मम शास्तुरुत्तमो घोणः॥८६

parilasatu vadanapaṅkajasaṅgilasatkalikākṛtirudāraḥ|

udyaṅgarucirakoṇascitte mama śāsturuttamo ghoṇaḥ||86

May that beautifully shaped nose of Shasta shine in my medit…

शास्तुर्गण्डयुगस्यानन्तर्याद् बिंबितात्मतनुदृष्ट्या।

पार्श्वगतदारयुगळेनान्यवधूगतमशङ्कि तत् पत्यौ॥९१

śāsturgaṇḍayugasyānantaryād biṁbitātmatanudṛṣṭyā|

pārśvagatadārayugaḻenānyavadhūgatamaśaṅki tat patyau||91

The cheeks of the Lord as so bright and gives such perfect reflection of images that when  people saw their own exact reflection there  with their wives too  they simply got the illusion that they were standing with their own wives on the one side and with and additional wife on the other side.

सर्गस्थविलयानां वृत्तिर् जगतो ममैव वृत्तिरिति।

उद्धतमिव यत्तरळं भ्रूयुगळं तच्चकास्तु मम शास्तुः॥९२

sargasthavilayānāṁ vṛttir jagato mamaiva vṛttiriti|

uddhatamiva yattaraḻaṁ bhrūyugaḻaṁ taccakāstu mama śāstuḥ||92

May those attractive brows of Shasta which are curved daintily in contemplation protect me.  The arching of that brow reflects his thoughts that the creation, maintenance and destruction happening in this universe is his own function happening through the twitch of those eyebrows.

[शास्तुश्चकास्तु मम हृदि  पदभजनात् प्राप्तमुन्नतपदं मे।

इत्येवमुदितमोदं शशिशकलमिवातिविमलमळीकतलम्॥९३

śāstuścakāstu mama hṛdi  padabhajanāt prāptamunnatapadaṁme|

ityevamuditamodaṁ śaśiśakalamivātivimalamaḻīkatalam||93

May the curl of hair resembling a lunar crescent adorning the forehead  of Shasta remain in my heart and protect me.   That curly hair is moving daintily being extremely pleased that  it has reached such  high position to adorn the  head of the lord only because it served the lotus feet of the lord for long periods.

अलकाः स्फुरन्तु शास्त्रुर्लळिताः कळभाः इवान्तरङ्गे  नः।

कचगळलोलुपाश्रितसुरतरुकुसुमानुवर्तिनोऽळिनाम्॥९४

alakāḥ sphurantu śāstrurlaḻītāḥ kaḻabhāḥ ivāntarage naḥ|

kacagaḻalolupāśritasuratarukusumānuvartino'ḻinām||94

May those locks of  hair  which are soft and dark shine within my inner self.  They are like young elephants which have come in pursuit of bees which have camped in the neck area of the lord which is decorated with  flowers from the  Kalpakavriksha, the divine tree

निजपतिसहजाभरणात् स्वातिप्रियमुपहृतमिव गुहशिखिना।

उत्तंसितां सदान्तःसत्तमबर्हं चकास्तु मम शास्तुः॥९५

nijapatisahajābharaṇāt svātipriyamupahṛtamiva guhaśikhinā|

uttaṁsitāṁ sadāntaḥsattamabarhaṁ cakāstu mama śāstuḥ||95

The peacock which is the vehicle of  Subramania the brother of Sasta  has presented its best feather as ornament to  the brother of its own master.  May that feather of superior quality and beauty ever shine in my mind as Sastas  ornament.

हैमं माणिक्य मणिकिरणपरिहसितकनकशिखरशृङ्गम्।

अन्तश्चकास्तु मकुटं भूषितभूतेश्वरोत्तमाङ्गं नः॥९६

haimaṁ māṇikya maṇikiraṇaparihasitakanakaśikharaśṛṅgam|

antaścakāstu makuṭaṁ bhūṣitabhūteśvarottamāṅgaṁ naḥ||96

May the crown that adorns the  head of  Bhutesvara the Sasta,  the crown made of pure gold,  which could give a sense of shame because of its superior  beauty through its shine,  to a mountain peak of gold studded with  precious gems, remain  etched in  our minds.

परिहर सकलविपत्तिं वितर स्वामिन् सर्वसंपत्तिम्।

करतलधृतशरधनुषे हरिहरजनुषे नमो नमस्तुभ्यम्॥९७

parihara sakalavipattiṁ vitara svāmin sarvasaṁpattim|

karataladhṛtaśaradhanuṣe hariharajanuṣe namo namastubhyam||97

Oh Lord  may your grace be pleased to remove all the dangers that would befall me. May your sweet grace be pleased to bless me will all riches and prosperity.  My lord, who holds bow and arrow in you hands,  my lord who is the eminent son of Hari and Hari,  I offer my prostrations again and again to your merciful Grace.

निखिलचराचरबधो मुखरुचिपरिभूतकुमुदिनीबन्धो।

स्वामिन् करुणासिन्धो करुणां मयि धेहि दीनजनबन्धो॥९८

nikhilacarācarabadho mukharuciparibhūtakumudinībandho|

svāmin karuṇāsindho karuṇāṁ mayi dhehi dīnajanabandho||98

My lord, you are the closest relative of all the moving and immovable beings in this vast univers,  your sweet beautiful face pushes to the rear in beauty even the shining orb of  the Moon who is the friend of Lily flower.  You are a huge ocean of Mercy and compaassion.  You are affectionate towards people who suffer misery.  May your sweet Grace be pleased to shower your abundant mercy on me.

भुवनेश भूतनायक भवतश्चरणांबुजयुगळे मे।

भूयस्तराऽस्तु भक्तिर्भूयो भूयो नमो नमस्तुभ्यम्॥९९

bhuvaneśa bhūtanāyaka bhavataścaraṇāṁbujayugaḻe me|

bhūyastarā'stu bhaktirbhūyo bhūyo namo namastubhyam||99

 Oh Lord, the master of the universe, Oh Lord the leader of the Bhootas,  may I be endowed with eternal devotion at your pair of feet which shine forth like lotus.  May I be endowed with utter devotion, again and again,  eternally at your lotus feet.  May humble pranams to your sweet Grace.

सततं तय्येवाहितकुशलविचिन्ताभरे निराधारे।

कुरु मयि करुणालेशं कालविळंभं निरस्य करुणाब्धे॥१००

satataṁ tayyevāhitakuśalavicintābhare nirādhāre|

kuru mayi karuṇāleśaṁ kālaviḻaṁbhaṁ nirasya karuṇābdhe||100

Oh Lord, I am always mired in utter anxiety about my safety and security, I have no one else other than  your grace to depend on for support,  please avoid  delay in helping me, you ocean of mercy, please  show a little, little mercy on me.
