“nagendraharaya trilochanaya” is the first line of the Shiva Panchakshara Stotram, a Sanskrit hymn dedicated to Lord Shiva.

• nagendraharaya: “nagendra” means “king of snakes” and “haraya” means “garland”. This refers to Shiva who wears a snake, typically a cobra, as a garland around his neck.
• trilochanaya: “tri” means “three” and “lochanaya” means “eyes”. This refers to Shiva’s third eye, located in the center of his forehead, which is known for its power of destruction.

Therefore, “nagendraharaya trilochanaya” means “To him who has the king of snakes as his garland and who has three eyes.”

This line is followed by “bhasmangaragaya mahesvaraya”, which further describes Shiva as:

• bhasmangaragaya: “bhasma” means “sacred ash” and “angaragaya” means “smeared with”. This refers to Shiva covering his body with sacred ash.
• mahesvaraya: “maha” means “great” and “ishvara” means “lord”. This is an epithet for Shiva meaning “the Great Lord”.

The Shiva Panchakshara Stotram continues with similar descriptions of Shiva, each line ending with “namah shivaya” which means “salutations to Shiva”.

This stotram is often chanted by devotees to praise and invoke Lord Shiva’s blessings.
