Shri Shiva Mangalashtakam

(Mangala Octet on Lord Shiva)

Translated by Shri P.R.Ramachander

(Mangala stotras are normally recited at the end of reciting several stotras or the end of singing several songs or at the end of an auspicious function. The devotee wishes auspiciousness to the Lord. Mangalam may also mean “good wishes”, or “wishes for a happy ending”.)
