परमेश्वरस्तुतिसारस्तोत्रम्
त्वमेकः शुद्धोऽसि त्वयि निगमबाह्या मलमयं

बहिस्तेभ्यः कृत्वा स्वपदशरणं मानय विभो
गजेन्द्रे दृष्टं ते शरणद वदान्यं स्वपददम् ॥१॥

न सृष्टेस्ते हानिर्यदि हि कृपयातोऽवसि च मां

कदाहं भो स्वामिन्नियतमनसा त्वां हृदि भज-

विधाता चेद्विश्वं सृजति सृजतां मे शुभकृतिं
विधुश्चेत्पाता माऽवतु जनिमृतेर्दुःखजलधेः ।
हरः संहर्ता संहरतु मम शोकं सजनकं
यथाहं मुक्तः स्यां किमपि तु तथा ते विदधताम्॥४॥

अहं ब्रह्मानन्दस्त्वमपि च तदाख्यः सुविदित-
स्ततोऽहं भिन्नो नो कथमपि भवत्तः श्रुतिदृशा।
तथा चेदानीं त्वं त्वयि मम विभेदस्य जननीं

कदाहं ते स्वामिञ्जनिमृतिमयं दुःखनिबिडं

पठन्त्येके शास्त्रं निगममपरे तत्परतया
यजन्त्यन्ये त्वां वै ददति च पदार्थांस्तव हितान्।
अहं तु स्वामिंस्ते शरणमगमं संसृतिभया-
द्यथा ते प्रीतिः स्याद्धितकर तथा त्वं कुरु विभो॥७॥

अहं ज्योतिर्नित्यो गगनमिव तृप्तः सुखमयः

अनादौ संसारे जनिमृतिमये दुःखितमना

ततो ज्ञात्वा यं वै तुदति न पुनः क्लेशनिवहै-
र्भजेऽहं तं देवं भवति च परो यस्य भजनात् ॥९॥

विवेको वैराग्यो न च शमदमाद्याः षडपरे

कदाहं भो स्वामिन्निगममतिवेद्यं शिवमयं

यदर्थं सर्वं वै प्रियमसुधनादि प्रभवति

स्ततोऽहं तं वेद्यं सततममलं यामि शरणं ॥१२॥

मया त्यक्तं सर्वं कथमपि भवेत्स्वात्मनि मति-
स्त्वदीया माया मां प्रति तु विपरीतं कृतवती।
ततोऽहं किं कुर्यां न हि मम मतिः क्वापि चरति
दयां कृत्वा नाथ स्वपदशरणं देहि शिवदम् ॥१३॥

नगा दैत्याः कीशा भवजलधिपारं हि गमिता-
स्त्वया चान्ये स्वामिन्किमिति समयेऽस्मिञ्छयितवान्।
न हेलां त्वं कुर्यास्त्वयि निहितसर्वे मयि विभो

अनन्ताद्या विज्ञा न गुणजलधेस्तेऽन्तमगम-
न्नतः पारं यायात्तव गुणगणानां कथमयम्।
गुणान्यावद्धि त्वां जनिमृतिहरं याति परमां
गतिं योगिप्राप्यामिति मनसि बुद्ध्वाहमनवम् ॥१५॥

Parameshwara Sthuthi sara sthothram
(Prayer of the summary praise of  Lord Parameshwara)

Translated by
P.R.Ramachander

(I stumbled on this great prayer under prayer to Lord  Vishnu in a dilapidated Malayalam book that I have. In spite of serious search, I could not locate it any where else or in the web.
 The prayer is in the form of conversation of the devotee to God. Each Sloka of the Stotra is extremely meaningful  and takes to direct intimacy with Lord Vishnu.)

Shudhosi thwayee nigama bahyamala mayam,
Prapancham pasyanthi bhramaparavasas papa nirathaa,
Bahisthebhya kruthwa swapada saranam manaya vibho,
Gajendra drushtam they saranadha dhanyam swapadhadham,                           1

Oh Lord Vishnu, you are known to be pure and independent,
But the sinners and the confused ones see you as the impure world,
Please remove me from them and make me a devotee of your feet,
For hearing about salvation of Gajendra , I know you do it for your devotees.

Na srushtesthe haniryadihi krupaya athovasichamaam,
Thwayaneka guptha vyasanamithi thesthi sruthi padhe,
Atho mamudharthum  ghataya mayi drushtim suvimalaam,
Na rikthaam may yachgnaam  swanaratha karthum bhava hare.                           2

By showing mercy on me, no harm will come to your creations,
For many people have been protected by you,
And also the Vedas tell that you are the protector,
And so, Oh God who has a merciful look, protect me,
And oh God, Oh lord Vishnu, do not neglect my appeal.

Kadhaaham bho swamin niyatha manasthwaam hrudhi bhaja-,
Nna bhadre samsaare  hyanavaratha  dukhethi virasa,
Labheyam thaam santhim parama munibhir ya  hyadhigatha,
Dhayaam kruthwamay  thwam vithara para santhim bhava hare.                         3

Oh God, when will I with devoted my mind pray you,
Get disenchanted with the sorrowful and boring life,
And get the peace that is being enjoyed by great sages?
Oh God Vishnu, be pleased to grant me that divine peace.

Vidharaa ched viswam srujathi srujathaam may shubha kruthim,
Viduscheth pathaa maavathu jani mrudhor  dukha jaladhe,
Hara samharthaa samharathu mama sokam sajanakam,
Yadhaham muktha syaam kimapi thu thadhaa they vidha dhathaam.                    4

If Lord Brahma were the creator of universe let him create good acts for me,
If Lord Vishnu is the one who saves, let him save me from the sea of birth and death,
If Lord Shiva is the destroyer, let him destroy all my sorrows,
And let all of them together, bless me with salvation.

Aham brahmanandasthwamapi cha thadhakhya  suvidhith-,
Sthathoham bindhaano kadhamap  bhavatha sruthi drusa,
Thadhaa chedhaneem thwam  thwayi mama vibhedhasya jananim,
Swa mayaam samvarya prabhava mama bhedham nirasithum.                                5

I am Brahmananda* and it is well known that you are called Brahmananda,
And so whether by name or due to philosophy I am not different from you,
And so please take pity on me and remove the illusion,
Which makes me feel, different from you and bring to an end this difference.
                      * Divinely joyous

Kadaham hey Swamin , jani mruthi bhayam, dukha nibidam,
Bhavam hithwa sathyo nava ratha sukhe swathma vapushi,
RAme thasmin nithyam  nikhila munayo brahma rasika,
Ramanthe  yasmim sthe  krutha sakala kruthya yathi vara.                                      6

Hey Lord, when will I destroy this sorrowful domestic life,
Which is full of fear, of birth and death and start enjoying in God,
Which is true and which is truth and is of perennial joy,
Where those who are enjoying are Brahmam and the great sages,
Who have realized  your oneness enjoy in you..

Padanthyeke sasthram nigamama pare thalparathaya,
Yajanthyanye thwaam vai dhadhadadhischa padartham sthwa hithaan,
Ahanthu swamimsthe saranamagamam  samsruthi bhayaa-,
Dhyadhaa they preethi syadhithakara tadathwam kuru vibho.                                   7

Hey God who is my Lord,  some learn divine texts,
Some others read the Vedas, some others worship you with devotion,
And some others offer you things that you like very much,
But I , due to the fear of domestic life , has only surrendered to you,
And Oh Lord now please take action as per your likening.

Aham jyothir nithyo gaganamiva thruptha sukha maya,
Sruthi sidhodhvaitha  kadhamapi na bhinnosthi vidhutha,
Ithi jnathe thathwe  bhavathicha para samsruthi layaa,
Dhathasthathwa jnanam mayi vighatayesthwam hi krupaya.                                    8

Please give me the knowledge of the philosophy of non differentiation,
Which when one gets,  this life ends and one becomes the divine truth,
Which will in turn make me realize that I am of the form of light,
I am perennial like the sky, I am satisfied, personification of joy,
And one with divinity and that I am no different from Lord Vishnu.

Anadhou samsare jani mrutha maye  dukhitha manaa,
Mumukshu sath kaschid bhajathi hi gurum  jnana paramam,
Thatho jnathwa yam vai thudhathina puna klesa nivahai-,
Bhajeham thandevam bhavathi cha paro yasya bhajanath.                                        9

In the beginning less domestic life, full of births and deaths,
When one is sorrowing, he with an aim of attaining salvation,
Approaches a Guru with great wisdom   and from him,
After learning about the divine Lord, he enjoys life without sorrows.
But I am praying that divine Lord, who is the ultimate God.

Vivekaa vairagyam na cha samadha maadhyaa shadapare,
Mumukshaa may nasthi prabhavathi kadham jnana mamalam,
Atha  samsarabdhe  sthara saraneem maam upadisan,
Swabudhim srothim may vithara bhagawam sthwam hi krupaya.                               10

I do not have wisdom, renunciation, tranquility and liberation,
Making it impossible for me to ever attain the pure wisdom,
And so God ,you please show me the path to cross ocean of life,
And mercifully bless me with the knowledge of ultimate divinity.

Kadaaham bho swamin , nigamama nivedhyam shiva mayam,
Chidaanandam nithyam sruthi hrutha parichedha nivaham,
Thwamrthaa bhinnam thwaam abhirama ihathmanya viratham,
Maneeshamevam may saphalaya vadanya swakrupaya.                                               11

Hey Lord, When would I offer you an offering full of peace,
And get to a state of ever lasting divine joy and attain a state,
When I would get rid of all the doubts that I have,
When will I understand the Vedic sayings and enjoy in thine divinity?
Please have mercy on me and fulfill these wishes of mine.      

Yadatham sarvam vai Priya massoodhanaadhi prabhavathi,
Swayam naanyarthehi Priya ithi cha vedhe pravidhitham,
Sa aathma sarveshaam jani mruthi mathaam Veda gaditha,
Sthuthoham tham vedhyam sathathamamalam yami saranam.                                     12

In Vedas it is told that,  it is for that  all are  born and die,
It is for the sake of which  we have desire for wealth and a long life,
And it is that which makes us love for the sake of something,
And it is also that which is not aimed at any thing,
And so I surrender to him who is pure and should be understood.

Maya thyaktham sarvam kadam abhi bhaved swathmamnimathi-,
Sthwadheeya maayaa maam prathi thu vipareetham kruthawathi,
THathoham kimkuryam nahi mama mahi kwaapi charathi,
Dhayaam kruthwaa Nadha Swapada charanam dehi Shivadham.                                 13

I forsook everything and concentrated my mind on the soul,
But your illusion did not allow me and made me do the opposite,
And so what should I do as my mind does not stay any where,
And so God, take pity upon me and give me your holy feet.

Nagaa daithyaa keesaa bhava jaladhi paaram hi gamithaa,
Stwayaa chaanye  swamin  kimapi samayesmimchayithavaan,
Na helaam thwam kuruasthwayee nihithsa sarva mayi vibho,
Na hithwaa aham hithwaakamapi saranam naanyagatham.                                          14

You have helped trees, asuras, monkeys and others , to cross the sea of life,
And I happen to sleep a little during the time when I had to request for it,
And Oh Lord, please do not continue this play with me ,
Who has completely surrendered to you , as I have not asked any body else.

Ananthadhya vijnana guna jaladhesthanthamagama-,
Nnatha paaram yaayaathava guna ganaanaam  kadhamayam,
Grunan yavadhithwajani mruthi madho  yathi paramaam,
Gathim yogi praapyamithi manasi budhwaahamanavam.                                             15

Even people like Aadhi Sesha have not seen the other shore of your sea of characters,
And how then can an ignorant one like me  hope to see the end of this sea,
And thinking that those who sing your names would destroy the bondage of life,
And reach salvation attained by Yogis, I prayed to you by using your names.
