కరానముమ్మొనవాలూ , ఉరాన పునుకల పేరూ, శిరాన నెలవంకా ధరించి, లీలాతాండవ లోలుడైన పరమశివునికి శిరస్సువంచి పురస్సరంగా ప్రణామం చేస్తున్నాను. కరుణాసాగరుడైన ఆ హరుడు కందర్ప దర్పహరుడు. పర్వత రాజపుత్రి ముఖపద్మాన్ని ప్రపుల్లం కావించే ప్రభాకరుడు. నారదుడు మొదలైన మౌనిసత్తముల చిత్తములనే నెత్తమ్మి విరులలో విహరించే నుత్తమమధుకరుడు.
