In plain words
I meditate upon Mṛtyuñjaya, seated on gem-studded Kailāsa beneath the wish-fulfilling tree. His body is beautiful like camphor, crystal, and the moon. Kātyāyanī attends him; Gaṅgā's high waves color his heavy matted locks; he is an ocean of Kṛpā—an ocean of compassion; and Śeṣa adorns his throat.
Close to the Sanskrit
On Kailāsa, inlaid with lovely gems, situated at the foot of the wish-fulfilling tree; with a body beautiful like camphor, crystal, and the moon; served by Kātyāyanī; with his mass of matted locks colored by Gaṅgā's lofty waves; an ocean of Kṛpā—compassion; with Śeṣa adorning his neck as an ornament: upon that Mṛtyuñjaya I meditate.
