Shiva Chalisa Stotra Lyrics – Shiv 40 Prayer to Lord Shiva
Jai Ganesh Girija Suvan
Mangal Mul Sujan
Kahat Ayodhya Das
Tum Dey Abhaya Varadan
Jai Girija Pati Dinadayala
Sada Karat Santan Pratipala
Bhala Chandrama Sohat Nike
Kanan Kundal Nagaphani Ke
Anga Gaur Shira Ganga Bahaye
Mundamala Tan Chhara Lagaye
Vastra Khala Baghambar Sohain
Chhavi Ko Dekha Naga Muni Mohain
Maina Matu Ki Havai Dulari
Vama Anga Sohat Chhavi Nyari
Kara Trishul Sohat Chhavi Bhari
Karat Sada Shatrun Chhayakari
Nandi Ganesh Sohain Tahan Kaise
Sagar Madhya Kamal Hain Jaise
Kartik Shyam Aur Gana rauo
Ya Chhavi Ko Kahi Jata Na Kauo
Devan Jabahi Jaya Pukara
Tabahi Dukha Prabhu Apa Nivara
Kiya Upadrav Tarak Bhari
Devan Sab Mili Tumahi Juhari
Turata Shadanana Apa Pathayau
Luv nimesh Mahi Mari Girayau
Apa Jalandhara Asura Sanhara
Suyash Tumhara Vidit Sansara
Tripurasur Sana Yudha Machai
Sabhi Kripakar Lina Bachai
Kiya Tapahin Bhagiratha Bhari
Purahi Pratigya Tasu Purari
Darpa chod Ganga thabb Aayee
Sevak Astuti Karat Sadahin
Veda Nam Mahima Tav Gai
Akatha Anandi Bhed Nahin Pai
Pragati Udadhi Mantan te Jvala
Jarae Sura-Sur Bhaye bihala
Mahadev thab Kari Sahayee,
