इदानीं ज्ञानमायातन्तवैव कृपया प्रभो॥ कर्ता हर्ता च भर्ता च त्वमेवान्यो न शंकर ॥ ३६॥

O lord, thanks to your grace, alone, knowledge has dawned on us. O Śiva, you alone are the creator, sustainer and annihilator, none else.

english translation

त्वमेव सर्वशक्तीनां सर्वेषां हि प्रवर्तकः ॥ निवर्तकश्च सर्वेशः परमात्माव्ययोऽद्वयः ॥ ३७ ॥

You alone are the initiator and the withdrawer of all powers. You are lord of all, the great soul, the unchanging, the unrivalled.

यक्षेश्वरस्वरूपेण सर्वेषां नो मदो हृतः ॥ इतो मन्यामहे तत्तेनुग्रहो हि कृपालुना ॥ ३८ ॥

In the form of Yakṣeśvara you have removed our arrogance. With sympathy and kindness we think we have been blessed by you.

english translation

अथो स यक्षनाथोऽनुगृह्य वै सकलान् सुरान् ॥ विबोध्य विविधैर्वाक्यैस्तत्रैवान्तरधीयत ॥ ३९ ॥

Then the Yakṣanātha blessed the gods enlightened them with various instructions and vanished there itself.

इत्थं स वर्णितः शम्भोरवतारः सुखावहः ॥ यक्षेश्वराख्यस्सुखदस्सतान्तुष्टोऽभयंकरः ॥ ४० ॥

Thus has been described the pleasant incarnation of Śiva called Yakṣeśvara that bestows pleasure, satisfaction and protection of the good.
