Shiva Panchakshara Stotram Opening

Nagendraharaya - one who wears the king of serpents as a garland
Trilochanaya - the three-eyed one
Bhasmangaragaya - one whose body is smeared with sacred ash
Maheshwaraya - the great lord
Nityaya - the eternal one
Shuddhaya - the pure one
Digambaraya - one clothed in the directions (sky-clad)
Tasmai Na Karaya - to that Na (the syllable Na of Namah Shivaya)

To Shiva who wears serpents as garlands, who has three eyes, whose body is adorned with sacred ash, who is the great lord, who is eternal, pure and clothed by the sky - to that syllable Na of Namah Shivaya, I offer my salutations.
