A beautiful legend
The history of Kalahasti
The sacred history of Sri Kalahasti
A beautiful legend
The history of Kalahasti
The sacred history of Sri Kalahasti
Just by listening to it, sins
Melt away and vanish before our eyes
Tandavam, the cosmic dance of Shiva
Parvati and Parameshwara
O merciful one, bearer of the river Ganga
O blue-throated Lord
Shankara, Shiva Shankara
Shankara, protector from fear
A beautiful legend
The history of Kalahasti
The sacred history of Sri Kalahasti
Just by listening to it, sins
Melt away and vanish before our eyes
Tandavam, the cosmic dance of Shiva
Parvati and Parameshwara
O merciful one, bearer of the river Ganga
O blue-throated Lord
Shankara, Shiva Shankara
Shankara, protector from fear
A devotee of Lord Shiva
Was born as a spider
And over Lord Shiva
Built a shelter with leaves
To test the spider's devotion
The three-eyed Lord decided
From His third eye
He unleashed a great fire
As the Shiva Lingam
Began to burn in fierce flames
The spider, determined to save Him
Sacrificed its life in the fire
The burnt spider
Drank in the Lord's divine grace
And in the name of Kalahasti
Shiva honored it with the title 'Sri'
As the sound of Shivoham
Echoes across the skies
The divine play of Parameshwara
Makes the earth flourish
Divine play
Shiva's divine play
I bow to You, please bless me
O blue-throated Lord
Shankara, Shiva Shankara
Shambho, protector from fear
Filled with pride
A serpent arrived
And placing the gem from its head
With deep devotion
Worshipped Lord Shiva
Believing its own worship was supreme
An elephant came along
Blew away the gems
And offered a shower of water
Filled with rage, the serpent
Crawled into the elephant's trunk
Writhing in pain, the elephant
Smashed hard against the Lingam
Honoring the selfless devotion
Of the elephant and the serpent
Lord Hara bestowed the name
Kala and Hasti, alongside Sri
As the sound of Shivoham
Echoes across the skies
The divine play of Parameshwara
Makes the earth flourish
Divine play
Shiva's divine play
I bow to You, please bless me
O blue-throated Lord
Shankara, Shiva Shankara
Shambho, protector from fear
As high or low
Lord Shiva never discriminates
The spider and the elephant
Are living proof of this
He accepted simple offerings of meat
Just as He tasted sacred sweet nectar
Any difference
He never sees
He saw only true devotion
And gave His heart in return
All three living souls
By the Lord's grace
Attained spiritual salvation
If you call Him with pure love
His heart melts and He comes running
The only refuge in this joyful world
Is Lord Parameshwara
As the sound of Shivoham
Echoes across the skies
The divine play of Parameshwara
Makes the earth flourish
Divine play
Shiva's divine play
I bow to You, please bless me
O blue-throated Lord
Shankara, Shiva Shankara
Shambho, protector from fear
