Bilvaashtakam–English Script
tridaḷaṃ triguṇākāraṃ trinetraṃ ca triyāyudhaṃ
trijanma pāpasaṃhāram ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
triśākhaiḥ bilvapatraiśca accidraiḥ komalaiḥ śubhaiḥ
tavapūjāṃ kariṣyāmi ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
koṭi kanyā mahādānaṃ tilaparvata koṭayaḥ
kāñcanaṃ kṣīladānena ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
kāśīkṣetra nivāsaṃ ca kālabhairava darśanaṃ
prayāge mādhavaṃ dṛṣṭvā ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
induvāre vrataṃ sthitvā nirāhāro maheśvarāḥ
naktaṃ hauṣyāmi deveśa ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
rāmaliṅga pratiṣṭhā ca vaivāhika kṛtaṃ tadhā
taṭākānica sandhānam ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
akhaṇḍa bilvapatraṃ ca āyutaṃ śivapūjanaṃ
kṛtaṃ nāma sahasreṇa ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
umayā sahadeveśa nandi vāhanameva ca
bhasmalepana sarvāṅgam ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
sālagrāmeṣu viprāṇāṃ taṭākaṃ daśakūpayoḥ
yajnakoṭi sahasrasca ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
danti koṭi sahasreṣu aśvamedha śatakratau
koṭikanyā mahādānam ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
bilvāṇāṃ darśanaṃ puṇyaṃ sparśanaṃ pāpanāśanaṃ
aghora pāpasaṃhāram ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
sahasraveda pāṭeṣu brahmastāpana mucyate
anekavrata koṭīnām ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
annadāna sahasreṣu sahasropa nayanaṃ tadhā
aneka janmapāpāni ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
bilvastotramidaṃ puṇyaṃ yaḥ paṭheśśiva sannidhau
śivalokamavāpnoti ekabilvaṃ śivārpaṇaṃ
