Word breakdown
- दूरीकृतानि दुरितानि दुरक्षराणि
- sins removed, hard letters gone
- दौर्भाग्यदुःखदुरहङ्कृतिदुर्वचांसि
- misfortune, sorrow, pride and harsh words
- सारं त्वदीयचरितं नितरां पिबन्तं
- drinking deeply the essence of Your conduct
- गौरीश मामिह समुद्धर सत्कटाक्षैः
- O Gauri's Lord, uplift me here with good glances
Drinking the essence of Shiva's conduct removes sin and harsh speech. The good glance of the Lord uplifts; the Self's gaze transforms the mind that contemplates divine conduct.
