Bhaktimala Shiva vol 1
These songs of lord shiva are really great in meanings too .I think the lyrics of the songs must clear the meanings of these bhajans .Few of them are from tulasidas ji who was a great devotee of lord Ram .We can see in his creations that how he always urged for the devotion of his lord from Shiv ji because according to him "
binu tab kripa ram pad pankaj sapnehu bhagati na hoyi " where he says to Shiv ji that without your's grace one can not get the devotion of lord Ram even in the dreams .So if you want to be a dear one of your lord first you need to become dearer to Lord shiva . :) Shiv ji is very innocent .One of the stories telling about his innocense is like that ... there was a demon named vrkkasur who did a lot effort to make Lord shiv happy so that he may ask for a boon of his will from the lord .Shankar ji is so innocent when he saw him burning in penance he expressed himself in front of him and said I am happy with your penance what do you want from me ? He said I want a boon which is like whenever I stare at anyone he/she should burn to ash .Shiv ji said : So be it .And just after getting the boon that demon started staring at shiv ji himself and then there was a panic in all the three lokas . Finally lord vishnu drew a solution and made the demon to die of his own earned boon .
I am sure the lyrics of these bhajans will make you feel more and more divine of these .
Thanks
Jai Shivshankar Jai Gangadhar

Jai shiv shankar jai gangadhar karunakar kartaar hare

Shesh Gang ardhang Parvati
Karpoor gauram karunavataram sansaarsaaram bhujgendrahaaram
Sadavasantam hridayaravinde bhawam bhawami sanhitam namami
Sheesh Gang ardhang Paarvati sada virajat kailasi
nadi bhringi nritya karat hai dharat dhyan sur sukhrashi
sheetal mand sugandh pawan vaha baithe hain shiv avinashi
karat gaan gandharva saarth sab raag raagini madhu hasi
yakhsa rakha bhairava jahan dolat bolat hain van ke vasi
koyal sabd sunavat sundar bhramar karat hai gunjasish
suryakant sam parvat shobhit chandrakant sam himrashi
nitya chahu ritu rahat sushobhit sevat sada prakiti dasi
Damru Har Kar Baje
yasyaam teja vibhaanti bhudhar suta devaapara mastake
bhaale baal vibhurgavecha gavanam yasyorasi byaal
soyam bhuti vibhushanah survarah sarvadhipaha sarvada
sarvah sarvadatah shrivaha srinibhah shree shankar patumam
Damru har kar baaje

panch badan pinaak kardhar vishabh vaahan bhoot nath
byaal kundal shravan shobhit anal purush anoop har har
Har Har deva
Har har deva
har ho jayatinandan jagavandana ganesh

baar baar ho tumhare sharan jagdheeshwar
Shankar jeevan varda
(lovely , I wish I could also get a little " bholapan" from bholanath ..I am sure who listens to it would also demand the same . be cheerful ! )
Shankara jeevan varda
bhakt aapke vinati karat hai bholanaath sada
damarudhar hey kailasheshwar mahadev surnatnateshwar
pralayankar ho abhayankar ho rakho laaj sada
chita bhasma yeh bhal viraje dand kamandalu trishul saaje
bhakti mukti ka panth aapka dhanya dhanya vasudha
Meaning -
Oh Shankar : who blesses the living beings with their life
your devotees are always requesting to you O master of naives
oh pellet drum holder Oh God of Kailash , the great deity ,the god of all minstrels
o annihilator o withdrawer of fear always save my diginity
the pire ash is lying on whose forehead and the shaft is decorated with the stoop and the trident
devotion and salvation being your path, the earth has become an eternal bliss .
Mahadev Vishwambhar

Shiv Tandav Stotram
Jatatavee gala jjala pravaha pavitha sthale,
Gale avalabhya lambithaam bhujanga thunga malikaam,
Dama ddama dama ddama ninnadava damarvayam,
Chakara chanda thandavam thanothu na shiva shivam
Jata kataha sambhramabrama nillimpa nirjari,
Vilola veechi vallari viraja mana moordhani,
Dhaga dhaga daga jjwala lalata patta pavake,
Kishora Chandra shekare rathi prathi kshanam mama
Dara darendra nandini vilasa bhandhu bhandura,
Sphuradigantha santhathi pramodha mana manase,
Krupa kadaksha dhorani niruddha durdharapadi,
Kwachi digambare mano vinodhamethu vasthuni
Jada bhujanga pingala sphurath phana mani prabha,
Kadamba kumkuma drava praliptha digwadhu mukhe,
Madhandha sindhura sphurathwagu utthariya medhure,
Mano vinodhamadhbutham bibarthu bhootha bharthari
Sahasra lochana prabhoothyasesha lekha shekhara,
Prasoona dhooli dhorani vidhu sarangri peedabhu,
Bhujangaraja Malaya nibhadha jada jhootaka,
Sriyai chiraya jayatham chakora bandhu shekhara
Lalata chathwara jwaladhanam jaya sphulingabha,
Nipeetha pancha sayagam saman nilimpanayakam,
Sudha mayookha lekhaya virajamana shekharam,
Maha kapali sampade, siro jadalamasthu na
Karala bhala pattika dhagadhaga jjwala,
Ddhanam jayahuthi krutha prachanda pancha sayage ,
Dharadharendra nandhini kuchagra chithrapathraka,
Prakalpanaika shilpini, trilochane rather mama
Naveena megha mandali nirudha durdharath sphurath,
Kahoo niseedhi neethama prabhandha bandha kandhara,
Nilimpa nirjari darsthanothu kruthi sindhura,
Kala nidhana bandhura sriyam jagat durandhara
Prafulla neela pankaja prapancha kalima prabha,
Valambhi kanda kanthali ruchi prabandha kandharam,
Smarschidham puraschidham bhavaschidham makhachidham,
Gajachidandakachidham tham anthakachidham bhaje
Agarva sarva mangalaa kalaa kadamba manjari,
Rasa pravaha madhuri vijrumbha mana madhu vrtham,
Suranthakam, paranthakam, bhavanthakam, makhandakam,
Gajandhakandhakandakam thamanthakanthakam bhaje
Jayathwadhabra vibramadbujaamga maswasath,
Vinirgamath, kramasphurath, karala bhala havya vat,
Dhimi dhimi dhimi dhwanan mrudanga thunga mangala,
Dhwani karma pravarthitha prachanda thandawa shiva
Drusha dwichi thra thalpayor bhujanga moukthika srajo,
Garishta rathna loshtayo suhrudhwi paksha pakshayo,
Trunara vinda chakshusho praja mahee mahendrayo,
Samapravarthika kadha sadashivam bhajamyaham
Kada nilampa nirjaree nikunja kotare vasan,
Vimuktha durmathee sada sirasthanjaleem vahan,
Vilola lola lochano lalama bhala lagnaka,
Shivethi manthamucharan kada sukhee bhavamyaham
Imam hi nithya meva muktha muthamothamam sthavam,
Padan, smaran broovan naro vishudhimethi santhatham,
Hare Gurou subhakthimasu yathi nanyadha gatheem,
Vimohinam hi dehinaam sushakarasya chithanam
Poojavasana samaye dasa vakhra geetham,
Ya shambhu poojana param padthi pradhoshe,
Thasya sthiraam radha gajendra thuranga yuktham,
Lakshmeem sadaiva sumukheem pradadathi shambu
Gale avalabhya lambithaam bhujanga thunga malikaam,
