Shiva Tāṇḍava Stotram - 2

jaṭā-katāha-saṃbhramam-bhraman-nīlimpa-nirjhari
Like a huge cauldron are those matted locks
In them is swirling, the river of the Gods (Gangā)

vilola-vīći-vallarī-virāja-māna-mūrdhani
Her waves lash about, twisting to and fro
Like a glistening creeper, above his brow

dhagad-dhagad-dhagad-jalal-lalāṭa-paṭṭa-pāvake
Dhag Dhag Dhag sputters the flame on His temple, very bright

kiśora-ćandra-śekhare ratiḥ pratikṣaṇaṃ mama
With the young moon on the crest, He is ever a captivating sight
