The dew showers making the world prosperous!
Through the Magical Power creates!

get progeny!

1. aRuruchat - shines; uShasaH - dawn; pRushni - sun; ukSha - dew;
bibha - desirous; vAjayuH - wealth / strength; mamirE - make; nRuchakShasaH - looking after men.

2. This hymn is a beautiful desctiption of the nature in the dawn.

3. The dawn is shining; the dew is dropping on the ground making the world fertile.
The God, Who is the super-intelligent (completely intelligent being), makes the creation.
Through that intelligence the humna race as well as all associated creatures continue 
generation after generation. 

Let us praise that Super-Intelligent Lord Shiva, the Lord of Ardra,
in the dawn of this wet dhanur masa.
