Damad damad damaddama ninadavadamarvayam
Chakara chandtandavam tanotu nah shivah shivam ||1||
From Lord Shiva’s matted hair flows the holy river, Ganga consecrating His neck, From His neck hangs the serpent like a garland, From His damaru (percussion instrument) comes the damad-damad-damad sound filling the air, Lord Shiva performs His passionate Tandava dance; may the Lord bless us all!
Jata kata hasambhrama bhramanilimpanirjhari

As the rows of waves of the sacred Ganga move through Lord Shiva’s matted hair, it glorifies His Head, The waves of the river flow into the depths of His locks of hair, A brilliant fire burns on the surface of Lord Shiva’s forehead, And the crescent moon is a jewel on His Head.
(May we find constant joy in Him!)

Salutations to Lord Shiva, who is the sporting consort of the daughter of the mountain king (Parvati), In whose mind the universe with all the living beings exist, Whose all-pervading, compassionate glance removes all hardships, Who wears the directions as His apparel.

Salutations to Lord Shiva, who shines radiantly because of the luster of the gem on the reddish-brown hood of the creeping serpent, Kadambha juice-like red vermilion (kumkum) is smeared on the faces of the Goddesses of direction, Who wears a cloak made of elephant hide, May I find pleasure in that Lord of Bhoota! (ghosts – meaning the mystical beings guarding Kailasa)
Sahasra lochana prabhritya sheshalekhashekhara

Salutations to Lord Shiva, whose footrest is decorated by the dust from flowers, Which fall from the heads of all the gods – Indra, Vishnu and others, Whose matted locks are bound by the snake-garland, Whose head holds the moon, a friend of Chakora (a mythical bird that drinks moonlight), as a crown.
(May Lord Shiva bless us with prosperity!)

(May we repose in him!)

Who Wrote Shiva Tandav Stotram?

The hymn includes 15 verses and each verse describes the fearless Shiva and his eternal beauty in great detail.
Origin of Shiv Tandava Stotram
In India, every dominant divine energy has many forms and names. Among the many virtues of Lord Shiva, the most popular one is where Shiva is addressed as Bholenath; it means one who is innocent and easy to please.
The legend goes like this: Lord Shiva granted a boon to anyone who praised him, or performed penance with faith and devotion.
All the demons took undue advantage of this and worshiped Lord Shiva as they knew that it was easy to please him and then receive a boon.
Ravana, who was a great priest, administrator, warrior, and devotee of Lord Shiva was known as the demon of demons. He loved himself and his powers a lot.
The story of Shiva Tandava Stotram begins on a day when Ravana tried to lift the Kailash mountain in his hand to take Lord Shiva along with him to Lanka.
As a consequence, Lord Shiva pressed his toe, and in the process, crushed the fingers of Ravana. Ravana cried in pain.
To escape from the wrath of Lord Shiva, Ravana sang a hymn that came to be known as the popular Shiva Tandava Stotram.
It is said that music is the most powerful tool to please the Lord. Lord Shiva was engrossed in the music of Ravana and became immensely pleased.
When Lord Shiva told Ravana to ask for a boon, Ravana requested that the Lord confer him with the most powerful tool and thus, became indestructible.
