दधि शङ्ख तुषाराभं क्षीरोदार्णव सम्भवम्
नमामि शशिनं सोमं शम्भोर्मुकुट भूषणम्

Transliteration:
Dadhi Shankha Tusharabham Kshirodarnava Sambhavam
Namami Shashinam Somam Shambhormukuta Bhushanam
Atrayo Atrinetrasamudbhuto Rohinisho Amritatmakah
Somashchandramaः Shitamshuh Kurvantu Mama Mangalam
Translation:
Pure white like curds, a conch shell, and snow, born from the Ocean of Milk,
I bow to Shashin, Lord Soma, the crest-ornament upon the head of Lord Shambhu;
Born from the lineage of Sage Atri, Lord of Rohini and embodiment of nectar,
May Soma, the cooling-rayed Moon God Chandramas, bestow auspiciousness upon me.
