Who rides on the bull and enchants   the universe.

Madhyama kala Sahithya

Daksha sikshana , dakshathara sura lakshana , vidhi vilakshana, lakshya lakshana,

Bahu vichakshana Sudha bakshana  , guru Kadaksha  Veekshana.

Madhyama Kala Sahithyam

God who taught Daksha , who is an expert in protecting devas,

Who made  Brahma   strange looking  in  the aim for which he was searching,

Who is greatly clever , who ate nectar and  towards whom the Guru  glances for being looked at.

Charanam

Badari vana  moola nayika sahitha  badra kaleesa  bhaktha vihitha,

Madana janakhadhi    deva mahitha maya karya kalanaa rahitha,

SAdaya guru  guha thatha  , gunatheetha, sadhu janopetha, SAnkara navaneetha ,

Hrudaya Vibhatha  Tumburu sangeetha  hreemkara  sambhootha  hema giri Nadha.

Charanam

He who is partial to devotees  , the lord of BHadra Kali ,

Who stays  in Badrika  forest along   with   the original  goddess,

Who is respected by father of Manmatha(Vishnu) and others ,

Who does not incite  one in acts   of illusion,

Who is the father of Guru Guha(Subrahmanya), who is beyond properties,

Who is well known to sages, who is the butter called Sankara ,

Whose  heart  shine  out when music of Thumburu is played,

Who is merged with sound Hreem   and the lord of the ice mountain.

Madhyama Kala Sahithya

SAdasritha kalpaka maheeruha  paadambuja   bhava  radha gaja  thuranga,

Padathi   samyutha   chaithothsava   sadashiva  sachidananda maya.

Madhyama kala SAhithya

He who is the wish giving tree to those who depend on his lotus like feet,

Who helps us to cross worldly existence , Who celebrates the  festival of Chithra(April-May)

Along with chariot  , elephants, horses   and  infantry  ,

Who is permanently at peace  and pervaded with divine joy.
