Mahamrityunjaya Mantra — Complete Lyrics
महामृत्युंजय मंत्र
Sanskrit text with English transliteration and translation
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान् मृत्योर्मुक्षीय मा ऽमृतात् ॥
Om Tryambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushtivardhanam
Urvarukamiva Bandhanan Mrityormukshiya Maamritat
We worship the three-eyed one (Shiva) who is of divine fragrance and who nourishes and strengthens all beings. Just as a ripe cucumber naturally separates from its vine — may he liberate us from death (and the fear of death), and not from immortality (the divine).
