Sri Hari Sharanaashtakam

Dheyayam vadanthi shivamevahi kechid anye,

Sakthim Ganesamaparethu divakaram vai,

Roopaisthu thairapivibhasiya thasthwameva,

Thasmath thwameva saranam Mama Sanka pane. 

No sodharo na janako janani na-jaya,

Naivathmajo na cha kulam vipulam balam vaa,

Sandrus-yathena kila kopi sahaya-kole,

Thasmath thwameva saranam Mama Sanka pane. 

No upasitha mada mapyasa-maya mahAntha,

Stheerthani chasthi-kadhiyani sevithani,

Devar-chanam cha vidhi vanna-kruthan kadhapi,

Thasmath thwameva saranam Mama Sanka pane. 

Durvasana mama sada parikarsha-yanthi,

Chitham sareera-mapi roga gana dahanthi,

Sanjeevanam cha parahasha gaham thadaiva,

Thasmath thwameva saranam Mama Sanka pane. 

Poorvam kruthani durithani mayathu yani,

Smruthvakhilani hrudayam parikampathe me,

Khyatha cha the pathitha pavaa thathu yasmath,

Thasmath thwameva saranam Mama Sanka pane. 

Dukham jara jananajamvividascha roga,

Kakaswa sookara janir niraye cha patha,

They vismruthe phalamidham vithatham hi loke,

Thasmath thwameva saranam Mama Sanka pane. 

Vedeshu darama vachaneshu thadha gatheshu,

Ramaya-nepi cha purana kadambake vaa,

Sarvathra sarva vidhinaa gathithas-thwameva,

Thasmath thwameva saranam Mama Sanka pane
