ब्रह्मनारायणस्तवः — शिवस्य प्रभवत्व-प्रतिपादनम्

Devanagari script

नमो ऽकृत्याय कृत्याय मुण्डाय कीकटाय च नम उन्मत्तदेहाय किङ्किणीकाय वै नमः

Transliteration

namo 'kṛtyāya kṛtyāya muṇḍāya kīkaṭāya ca nama unmattadehāya kiṅkiṇīkāya vai namaḥ

Translation

Поклонение Бесформенному и Тому, кто принимает формы; поклонение аскету с выбритой головой и Владыке, что странствует даже среди презираемого. Поклонение Тому, чьё тело кажется неистовым, опьянённым божественной свободой; истинно поклонение Тому, кто украшен звенящими колокольчиками.
