Brahma Vishnu, sada shiva, ardhangi Dhara, Om Jaya Shiv Omkara.

Om Victory to Shiva, who is the meaning of Om,
Oh God, victory to Shiva, who is the meaning of Om,
Who wears Brahma, Vishnu, Sada Shiva and Goddess Parvathi,
Om Victory to Lord Shiva, who is the meaning of Om.

Dho Bhuj chaar chathur bhuj they sohe,
Theeno roop nirakhtha Tribhuvan Man mohe, Om Jaya Shiv Omkara

The men with two hands and Gods with four hands worship you,
You take all the three forms and attract mind of the three worlds,

Chandan mruga madh sohe, bhaale shubha kaari, Om Jaya Shiv Omkara

You wear the garland of beads, garland of forest flowers and garland of skulls,
You are worshipped by application of sandal paste and paste of musk,
You are the one who does great good to all,
Om Victory to Lord Shiva, who is the meaning of Om

Swethaambhar, peethabhar, bhagambhar ange,
Sanakadhika, Brahmadhika. Prethadhika sange, Om Jaya Shiv Omkara

You wear the white silk, the yellow silk and the hide of the lion,
You mingle with Sanaka and other sages, Brahma and also the corpses,,

Jaga kartha, jag hartha, Jag palan kartha, Om Jaya Shiv Omkara

Between your hands you wear the skull, the holy wheel and the trident,
You create the world, you destroy the world and you look after the world,

Brahma Vishnu Sada Shiva Janath aviveka,
Pranavakshar Madhya thenom hi, yeka, Om Jaya Shiv Omkara

Understanding you separately, as Brahma, Vishnu or Sada Shiva is ignorance,
For in between Om and the three of them are one,
Om Victory to Lord Shiva, who is the meaning of Om

Triguna swamiji kee aarthi jo koi gaave,
Kahath shivanand swami mana vanchith phal paave, Om Jaya Shiv Omkara

If some one sings this Aarthi of the God with three qualities,
Shivananda Swami tells that he would get all that he wishes in mind,
Om Victory to Lord Shiva, who is the meaning of Om.
