Sri Kalabhairava Ashtakam Lyrics – Adi Sankaracharya's Kalabhairava Astakam Lyrics
Deva raja sevya mana pavangri pankajam,
Vyala yagna suthra mindu shekaram krupakaram,
Naradadhi yogi vrundha vandhitham digambaram,
Kasika puradhi nadha Kalabhairavam bhaje. 1
Bhanu koti bhaswaram, bhavabdhi tharakam param,
Neelakanda meepsidartha dayakam trilochanam,
Kalakala mambujaksha maksha soola maksharam,
Kasika puradhi nadha Kalabhairavam bhaje. 2
Soola tanga pasa danda pani madhi karanam,
Syama kaya madhi devamaksharam niramayam,
Bheema vikramam prabhum vichithra thandava priyam,
Kasika puradhi nadha Kalabhairavam bhaje. 3
Bhukthi mukthi dayakam prasashtha charu vigraham,
Bhaktha vatsalam shivam* , samastha loka vigraham,
Vinikwanan manogna hema kinkini lasath kateem,
Kasika puradhi nadha Kalabhairavam bhaje. 4
Dharma sethu palakam, thwa dharma marga nasakam,
Karma pasa mochakam , susharma dayakam vibhum,
Swarna varna sesha pasa shobithanga mandalam,
Kasika puradhi nadha Kalabhairavam bhaje. 5
Rathna padukha prabhabhirama padayugmakam,
Nithyamadwidheeyamishta daivatham niranjanam,
Mrutyu darpa nasanam karaladamshtra mokshanam,
Kasika puradhi nadha Kalabhairavam bhaje. 6
Attahasa binna padma janda kosa santhatheem,
Drushti pada nashta papa jala mugra sasanam,
Ashtasidhi dayakam kapala malikadaram,
Kasika puradhi nadha Kalabhairavam bhaje. 7
Bhootha sanga nayakam, vishala keerthi dayakam,
Kasi vasa loka punya papa shodhakam vibum,
Neethi marga kovidham purathanam jagatpathim,
Kasika puradhi nadha Kalabhairavam bhaje. 8
Kalabhairavashtakam patanthi yea manoharam,
Jnana mukthi sadhanam , vichithra punya vardhanam,
Soka moha dainya lopa kopa thapa nasanam,
Thea prayanthi Kalabhairavangri saniidhim druvam. 9

Namaste.
ReplyDeletethank you so much for having posted this. Your site is wonderful and truly inspires my devotion.
I am singing along this Ashtakam, but without knowing what story it tells.
Would it possible to get a translation in english?
Thank you so much in advance.
Be blessed
wonderful, fantastic blog, heartfelt thanks for the wonderful works done on this blog, really like this blog and love to watch again and again. its helps all devotees. will be very useful if the lyrics would be in southern regional languages for people who don't know english. expecting more and more slokas, stotras, mantras, bhajans and more.

Can anyone please provide me the kaal bhairav ashtakam written in sanskrit or hindi
ReplyDeleteThis website does a great job and helps me improve my devotion. I request the administrator of this website to provide translation of these lyrics in English. I would also request to provide lyrics in any Indian script(preferably Devanagari) as many people feel it comfortable that way.
ReplyDeletelast time I visited it, you had posted all the mantras and bhajans in Devanagari script, which was really great. However this time, I could find only in Roman script. Either I've missed something or you've removed it?
ReplyDeleteIt would be really great, if you could put back the Devanagari Scripts.
Would appreciate much if you could guide me in case I missed the link to get into the Devanagari Mantras.
Namaskar,
Mani
ஓம் நமசிவய நமஹ
