Pralay Tandav Fire
When the stars fall from the sky
when the oceans heave and sigh
when the mountains turn to dust
the cosmic dance begins its thrust
Dance, O Shiva, dance the pralay
destroy the old, bring the new day
the damaru beats, the world will shake for the love of all
that you remake
The fire of the third eye burns
the universe churns and turns
the demons flee, the gods all bow
to the lord of the here and now
And then a silence,
deep and still
the world waits for the divine will
a lotus blooms, a light appears
a new beginning through the fears
O Shiva, lord of the cosmic dance
in your destruction we find our chance to be reborn,
to start anew in your divine and holy view
Om...
Namah... Shivaya... forever... and ever...
in peace and in dance. (Om)
