Shiva's Sacred Stream

From the heavens high,

the waters leap

Ganga flows with a mighty sweep

Shiva stands beneath

the cosmic dome

To catch her wild

currents in his home (aah)

In his matted locks,

the torrent breaks

Into gentle streams, the goddess wakes

Shiva speaks, "I will hold you forever" "You will purify

the earth,

now and ever"

From his sacred hair,

the waters rise

Bringing life beneath

the summer skies

Through the valleys green,

the river flows

Every touch of grace

her current shows

Ganga flows, giving life to the world (Om Namah Shivaya) (Om)
