Brihadeeswarar to Burhanath via Bambleshwari Temple
At 216 feet high, the Vimanam stands tallest in the world
A mandir tower carved out of a single rock;
80 tons heavy, with intricate carvings
Capable only by the blessed sculptors
Brihadeswara aalayam set a record
And flaunted its glory in just 6 years

Walked into the pranganam
To worship the linga of Bhagwan Shiva
Peruvudaiyar, they call the Eshwar
Bowing down in reverence to seek his blessings
As the aalayam walls bear the proof in scriptures
The fall and fortunes of the city in Thanjavur

Shiva he is, the bhagwan with a snake
As a garland adorning his blue neck
Swayambhu his lingam was, years ago in Bihar
Dudheshwara Mahadeav the bhakts named him
As Vashishta muni prayers echoed in the Burhanath mandir

Gave birth to Madasen, an heir to the throne
Building an aalayam 2200 years ago
On the top of the hill, at 1600 feet high
To show their gratitude and bhakti
Bhagwan Shiva with his dear consort, Parvati
Grant boons to those who have faith his presence
Not easy it is to get the darshan;
A thousand steps of the test, one has to pass
On the rocky hill to reach the top

To become a guiding light and show the right path
As she saved King Vikramaditya
From taking his life years and years in the past
And even today we see, bhakts gathering around her
During Kavar and Chaitra
Asking for their wishes to be fulfilled
