NINA HAGEN
"Omhaidakhandi"

Speak loudly of the holy Lord of Haidakhan
Tell of God, the personification of Truth, Consciousness and Bliss
Proclaim holy Lord Shiva with the Goddess Mother
The Sustainer, Inspirer, and World Master

Hail, hail to Lord Haidakhan
Who incarnated for the liberation of the world

Thou alone art my true divine Master
Shiva invisible, unperceivable, highest God

Your heart is very full of mercy
One who surrenders to you is immediately liberated

What pain in the world cannot be removed
Instantly by your grace, O king of sages?

You always speak words which remove our fear
Baba fulfills all desires

O Lord, you are the source of auspiciousness, the remover of evil
I sacrifice everything at your lotus feet

Great Sage, you speak very sweetly, extremely benevolently;
Your sentences are the essence of knowledge

The true eternal religion, full of generosity
Tells of knowledge combined with holy work

Each one's own duty is good for him
Jealousy and hatred are not

Truth, simplicity and love, brother
This duty alone brings man happiness

Meditate on the Lord's name, brother, to purify the heart
Find the Lord sitting in your heart

Holy Shiva is residing in your heart
Find him there, leave ignorance and disappointment behind

The great saint, an ocean of all qualities
Whose beginning and end nobody knows

Haidakhan is a wonderful place
Very holy giving joy and solace

The roar of the Gautama Ganga is heard day and night;
Siddhas, gods and demons worship there every day

Holy mount Kailash, so beautiful
Looking at it, the mind yearns for it

Under that mountain is a beautiful cave;
That great cave is described in the Vedas

The wild animals wandering in the dense forest
They forget all enmity among themselves

Since the Lord started living here
The "Garden of the Heaven's" beauty faded in comparison

All glory to this holy place is ours
Which Shiva enjoys as his living place

Thy merciful look gives love of Thy holy feet
By no other method can one get a pure mind

Now Lord, show me grace in this way
Let me renounce all and do meditation day and night

Praise to Amba, mother of the universe
All forms are one, Thou, mother goddess Amba
