Ten Offerings to Mahâkâla Lyrics

1. spyan-'dren / invitation

Step forth, Black One
Take our flesh
In your six-armed Embrace.
Great Dark One, nag-po chen-po,
Drink our Souls
And spit them back,
That we may perceive
Our one thousand Deaths


2. mchod-pa / offerings

Take our meager offerings
Unveil our eyes
To Magnificence
Beyond the five senses
That we may reach
The sixth

3. bstod-pa / praises

Six-armed Gönpo,
Mgon-po phyag drug-pa;
Fierce protector,
Guard our Earth from Evil.
Mahâkâla,
We greet you in praise,
Grant us Strength,
And Wisdom
