शूलटङ्कपाशदण्डपाणिमादिकारणंश्यामकायमादिदेवमक्षरं निरामयम् ।भीमविक्रमं प्रभुं विचित्रताण्डवप्रियंकाशिकापुराधिनाथकालभैरवं भजे ॥ ३ ॥
In plain words
Trident, axe, noose and rod in his hands; the first cause, dark as night, the earliest of the gods, unwearing, without a single flaw; his stride is terrifying, he is the master, and the wild many-shaped tāṇḍava is his delight — Kāla Bhairava, lord of the city of Kāśī, I worship him.
Close to the Sanskrit
Him who holds trident, axe, noose and rod in his hands, the primal cause, the dark-bodied one, the first god, the imperishable, the flawless, him of fearsome striding power, the lord, him to whom the wondrous tāṇḍava is dear — Kāla Bhairava, presiding lord of the city of Kāśī, I worship.
