शूलटङ्क पाशदण्ड पाणिमादिकारणं
श्यामकाय मादिदेवमक्षरं निरामयम्
भीमविक्रमं प्रभुं विचित्रताण्डवप्रियं
काशिकापुराधिनाथ कालभैरवं भजे
Shulatanka Pashadanda Panimadikaranam
Shyamakaya Madidevamaksharam Niramayam
Bhimavikramam Prabhum Vichitratandavapriyam
Kashikapuradhinatha Kalabhairavam Bhaje
Holding trident, hatchet, noose, and staff in hand, the primeval cause,
Dark-bodied, the primal God, imperishable and free from all affliction,
Of mighty valor, the supreme Lord who delights in the wondrous cosmic Tandava dance,
I worship Kalabhairava, the supreme Lord of the sacred city of Kashi.
