Word breakdown

नमः शिवाभ्यामतिसुन्दराभ्याम्
Salutations to the two exceedingly beautiful Shivas,
अत्यन्तमासक्तहृदम्बुजाभ्याम्
who are most attached to the lotus hearts of devotees,
अशेषलोकैकहितङ्कराभ्याम्
who work the sole welfare of all worlds,
नमो नमः शङ्करपार्वतीभ्याम्
again and again salutations to Shankara and Parvati.

Exceeding beauty and steadfast love for devotees' lotus hearts reveal grace that seeks the surrendered mind; welfare of all worlds flows from the one pair because the Self's compassion is not partial but the very nature of reality.
