सघन जटामंडल रूप वन से प्रवाहित होकर श्री गंगाजी की धाराएँ जिन शिवजी के पवित्र कंठ प्रदेश को प्रक्षालित (धोती) करती हैं, और जिनके गले में लंबे-लंबे बड़े-बड़े सर्पों की मालाएँ लटक रही हैं तथा जो शिवजी डमरू को डम-डम बजाकर प्रचंड तांडव नृत्य करते हैं, वे शिवजी हमारा कल्याण करें।
जटा कटा हसंभ्रम भ्रमन्निलिंपनिर्झरी ।
विलोलवी चिवल्लरी विराजमानमूर्धनि ।
