Ode to Shiva

Ode to Shiva

I worship the divine, a fusion of might,
Shiva, the embodiment of yoga, renunciation, and light.
He, who showed the path of companionship true,
Standing by one's partner, through life's trials anew.

With Shakti by his side, he traversed every test,
Choosing poison over ease, he exemplified responsibility's crest.
Embracing devas, danavas, and asuras with love,
Adorned with ash, he is revered as Vibhuti from above.

His form, adorned with serpent and crescent moon's glow,
We bow to this revered deity, our salutations flow.
Mahadev, the great god, a symbol of love and strength,
We honor him, the cosmic dancer, with devotion's length.
