“We worship the three-eyed One (Lord Shiva), who is fragrant and creates goodness. As a cucumber is liberated from its stem, so may I be liberated from the bondage of death, for the sake of immortality.”
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम् ।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान् मृ त्योर्मुक्षीय मामृतात् ॥
“Om Tryambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushtivardhanam. Urvarukamiva Bandhanan Mrityormukshiya Mamritat.”
