Shri Subrahmanya Bhujangam Stotram Lyrics in English with Meaning
|| Shri Subrahmanya Bhujangam ||
Sada balaroopapi vignaadri hantri,
Mahadanthi vakthrapi panchasyamaanya,
Vidheendraadhi mrugya ganesabhidha may,
Vidathaam sriyam kaapi kalyana murthy. || 1 ||
Let Him who is called the giver of good things,
Who though forever looks like a small child,
Powders mountains of great obstacles,
Who though having a huge elephants head,
Is much respected by Lord Shiva,
Who is being searched by Gods like Brahma,
And who is called the lord of Ganas,
Bless me with great prosperity. || 1 ||
Na janaami sabdham , na janaami cha artham,
Na janami padyam, na janami gadhyam,
Chideka shadaasyaa hrudhi dyothathe may,
Mukhanthissaranthe giraschapi chithram. || 2 ||
Though I do not know words,
Nor the meanings of words,
Nor the form of prose or verse,
The six headed one shines in my heart,
And wonder of wonders,
Words flow from my heart without a stop,
And make a pretty picture using words. || 2 ||
Mayurathi roodam Maha vakhya goodam,
Manohari deham, mahaschitha geham,

Maha deva balam, Bhaje loka palam. || 3 ||
I sing the praise of that protector of the world,
Who rides on a peacock,
Who is the meaning of great Vedic sayings,
Who has a very pretty mien,
Who resides in the minds of great ones,
Who is the god of all gods,
Who is the tenor of the Vedas,
And who is the great son of Lord Shiva. || 3 ||
Yada sannidhanaam gatha maanaava may,
Bhavaambhodhi paaram gathaasthe thadaiva,

Thameede pavithram Parashakthi puthram. || 4 ||
I sing the praise of that pure son of the great Shakthi,
Who sits at the end of all seas and tells, “Once you come in front of me,
You have crossed the ocean of painful day-to-day life.” || 4 ||

Sadaa bhavaye hruthsaroje guham thaam. || 5 ||
Like the waves of the sea, beating on the shore, Becomes weakened and disappears.
The worries of Him who visit his temple, Disappears into small dust,
And so I make the great Lord Subramanya, Reside in the lotus of my heart always. || 5 ||

Feels that he has climbed the greatest mountain,”
So says the God who lives on the sandal mountain,
And let him offer me perennial protection. || 6 ||

That Guha, the stealer of all sins in the banks of the ocean,
Who resides in the caves of sandal mountain,
For the sake of his sage devotees.,

I always worship that lord of all devas,
Who was looked after by Karthika maidens, Who fulfills the wishes of all people,
Who is covered by mountains of flowers, When he sits on his throne of gems and rubies,
In his residence of Gold, And looks like the light of thousands of suns. || 8 ||
