Daridra Dahana Shiva Stotra by Sage Vasistha

To the Lord of the Universe, who helps us cross the sea of hell, who is nectar to the ears, who wears the crescent as ornament, who is as white as the flame of camphor, who wears uncombed and uncut hair, I salute that Shiva, who burns the sorrow of poverty.

Darling of Gauri, who wears the crescent of the Lord of night, destroyer of time (Lord of death), who wears the king of serpents as bangles, who holds Ganga, who is the killer of Lord of elephants, I salute that Shiva, who burns the sorrow of poverty.

Loved by devotees, who destroys fear of diseases in human life, who is fearsome, who makes us cross the difficult ocean of life, who is personification of light, who dances in his good names, I salute that Shiva, who burns the sorrow of poverty.

One who wears hides, who applies ash of burning corpses, one who has an eye on his forehead, one who ears ear studs of precious stones, one who wears jingling bangles on his legs, one who wears uncombed and uncut hair, I salute that Shiva, who burns the sorrow of poverty.

One who has five faces, who wears king of serpents as ornament, who wears cloth made of gold, who is the ornament for the three worlds, who is the giver of boons, who is the storehouse of happiness, who is the personification of darkness, I salute that Shiva, who burns the sorrow of poverty.

Who is dear to the Sun God, who helps us cross the ocean of birth, who killed the God of Death, who is worshipped by Lord Brahma, who has three eyes, who aims at having all good signs, I salute that Shiva who burns the sorrow of poverty.

Who is dear to Rama, Who granted boons to Rama, Who is dear to serpents, who destroyed Naraka, who is holiest among the holy, I salute that Shiva who burns the sorrow of poverty.

One who grants immortality, who grants fruits (of actions), who is the Lord of Ganas, who loves music, who has the bull as vehicle, who wears skin of deer, Maheshwara, I salute that Shiva who burns the sorrow of poverty.

This stotra composed by Vasistha, is remedy to all problems, This gives all types of wealth quickly. Increases your progeny. One who reads this three times in a day, daily will indeed reach heaven.
