Pallavi

Bhaja Mana Shankara Bhola natha
Ekahi lota Bhar Jal Chahi
Chavalu Bhelki Haath (Bhaja)

Oh mind sing about, Bhola Nath who is Shankara,
Only one small pot full of water is needed,
And one handful of rice and Dhal

Anupallavi

Ardhangi gauri Jatamey Ganga
Ardha Chandra Dhara Shiva Bhairagi
Hara thripuranthaka Giri Kanya pathi
Mahima Bharanatha Bhola Natha (Bhaja)

Gauri occupying half his body and Ganga occupying his tuft,
The Shiva is a medicant who is wearing a half moon,
The destroyer of the three cities ,
The husband of the daughter of mountain,
The Bhola Nath whose power is completely filled.

Charanam

Badey Vyagnrmbara Sahi Vishvambara
Trishoola damaru Peharatha Hatha
Anga Vibhootha Smashanumey keelatha
Nadha Brahmma Shiva Krishna Dasa Natha (Bhaja)

Wears hide of a big tiger but really clothed in universe,
Decorating his hand are the trident and the drum,
Applying ash on his body and living in a cremation ground,
Krisna dasa’s Lord is Shiva , the lord of music.
