लीलामात्रेण ते शंभो कार्यं यद्यपि सिद्ध्यति ॥ तथाप्यहं प्रेषणीयो तवैवानुग्रहो ह्ययम् ॥ ३६ ॥

O Śiva, verily any task can be fulfilled by your mere sport. But it is your blessing and favour, that I shall be sent to do the job.

english translation

शक्तिरेतादृशी शंभो ममापि त्वदनुग्रहात् ॥ विना शक्तिर्न कस्यापि शंकर त्वदनुग्रहात् ॥ ३७ ॥

It is by your blessing that I am qualified in this task. O Śiva, without your blessing and favour none will have that power and efficiency.

english translation

त्वदाज्ञया विना कोपि तृणादीनपि वस्तुतः ॥ नैव चालयितुं शक्तस्सत्यमेतन्न संशयः ॥ ३८ ॥

This is true. There is no doubt in this that without your command and permission no one shall move even a blade of grass.

english translation

शंभो नियम्यास्सर्वेपि देवाद्यास्ते महेश्वर ॥ तथैवाहं नियम्यस्ते नियंतुस्सर्वदेहिनाम् ॥ ३९ ॥

O Śiva, devas and others are subject to your control. I too am subject to the control exercised by you. I am the controller of all living beings.

english translation

प्रणतोस्मि महादेव भूयोपि प्रणतोस्म्यहम् ॥ प्रेषय स्वेष्ट सिद्ध्यर्थं मामद्य हर सत्वरम् ॥ 2-2-32-४० ॥

O Śiva, I have knelt before you. Again and again I kneel before you. O Śiva send me immediately for the fulfilment of your desire.
