Ô Tryambaka, Seigneur aux trois yeux; ô Souverain qui détruisit Tripura; ô Protecteur dont les trois yeux sont la triade même; ô Celui qui broya le poison Kālakūṭa; ô Tueur du tueur de la Mort—je me prosterne devant Toi. Accorde les grâces désirées à ceux qui se courbent.

Tirtha: Viśvanātha (Kāśī)

Scene: Śiva as Tripurāntaka with three eyes, poised with divine power; the poison episode hinted by a blue throat; the devotee bows seeking protection and boons.
Śiva is portrayed as the supreme protector who overcomes poison, death, and cosmic threats—devotion to Him removes fear.
Kāśī kṣetra, where worship of Tryambaka/Viśvanātha is upheld as especially merit-giving.
No explicit ritual is stated; the verse functions as a stotra for recitation and reverent salutation.
