Pranam Mantra for Sri Sada Siva Gangadhar:

দেবাদিদেবমহিভূষণমিন্দুকাশং
পঞ্চাননং পশুপতিং বরদং প্রসন্নম্ ।
গঙ্গাধরং প্রণতপালকমাশুতোষং
বন্দে সদশিব-হরিপ্রিয়-চন্দ্রমৌলিম্ ॥

devadidevam-ahibhusanam-indukasam
panchananam pasupatim varadam prasannam
gangadharam pranatapalakamasutosam
vande sadasiva-haripriya-chandramaulim

The chief of the Devas, whose body is decorated by snakes, whose body shines like the moon, who has five heads, who carries his weapon known as Pasupat, who gives boons, who is of satisfied nature, who holds the Ganga on his head, who maintains those who give obeisance to him, who is easily pleased—I offer my obeisances to Sada Siva, who is dear to Hari, and whose crown is the moon.
