1st verse Now I bow to Shiva with love and respect / I invoke him with this slogan so I’m open to connect / with devotion cuz I’m knowin that he’s always in effect / in deep meditation with a snake around his neck / he’s the husband of Parvati Maha Shakti / & he rides a white bull the vehicle Nandi / he’s Ganapati’s father mister Mahadev / and the Ganges flow down from the crown of his head /a crescent moon rests right next to his dreads he’s the god of the dead covered in ash / with a smile on his face his compassion is vast living in a place called Mount Kailash /in the Himalayan kingdom known as his home & in the shape of a lingam he’s a rolling stone / to the king of all yogis Shankara Shambo / Om Namah Shivaya, Shivaya Namah Om
chorus Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namah Shivaya / Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namah Shivaya
2nd verse To Shiva Shankar, the yoga master / known as Nataraja the cosmic dancer lord of destruction, god of disaster / and if you don’t invite him he’s the of party crasher to the old school mystic, who’s non dualistic / Shiva guides my mind so that I can shift it away from a place that’s materialistic / into a space that’s more holistic / magnetic ascetic you make the soul shine / you awaken the snake at the base of the spine / third eye wide open in a yoga pose / you show us how to focus so the lotus unfolds / in deep concentration with breath control / returning to the source now we feel the force flow when the Jiva meets Shiva opposites become whole / Om Namah Shivaya Shivaya Namah Om
chorus Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namah Shivaya / Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namah Shivaya
3rd verse Om Namah Shivaya the flames get higher / as the corpse gets burned on the funeral pyre the soul never dies so it won’t expire / when it’s time to die just take off this attire exhale to let go of the ego’s desire / let your soul be inspired to shine even brighter like Shiva Nataraja the one that I admire / dancing on a demon in a burning ring of fire Mahadev it’s been said that your pure auspiciousness /and your known as Truth Bliss & Consciousness, /creating, devastating and always transformation / you save the whole world when you swallowed up the poison / destroying bad habits ignorance, and greed practicing detachment, compassion, and peace / to the king of all yogi’s we offer these prayers / to the lord of meditation living in the Himalayas
chorus Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namah Shivaya / Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namah Shivaya
