।। श्रीगौरीशंकराभ्यां नमः ।। अथ रुद्रसंहितांतर्गतश्चतुर्थः कुमारखण्डः प्रारभ्यते ।। वन्दे नन्दनतुष्टमान समति प्रेमप्रियं प्रेमदं पूर्णं पूर्णकरं प्रपूर्णनिखिलैश्वर्यैकवासं शिवम्।। सत्यं सत्यमयं त्रिसत्यविभवं सत्यप्रियं सत्यदं विष्णुब्रह्मनुतं स्वकीयकृपयोपात्ताकृतिं शंकरम् ।। १ ।।

I salute Śiva who is satisfied with salutation, who loves great devotion, who bestows affection, who makes others too perfect and complete and who is the abode of all fortune and achievements. I salute Śiva who is eulogised by Viṣṇu and Brahmā, who urged by His sympathy assumes visible forms, who bestows truth, who loves truth, whose assets are the threefold truths and who is identical with truth. O great sage, praising and pleading like this to Śiva, Viṣṇu wept bitterly along with the gods harassed by Tāraka.
