॥ श्री सोमनाथ स्तोत्रम् ॥
ॐ नमः शिवाय सोमनाथाय।
ज्योतिर्लिङ्गाय प्रभासक्षेत्रवासिने॥
सोमनाथं महादेवं प्रभासक्षेत्रनायकम्।
चन्द्रमौलिं जगन्नाथं प्रणमामि मुहुर्मुहुः॥ १॥
सोमेन स्थापितं लिङ्गं प्रथमं ज्योतिरात्मकम्।
शापमुक्त्यै शशाङ्कस्य सोमनाथं नमाम्यहम्॥ २॥
सागरस्य तटे रम्ये प्रभासे तीर्थमुत्तमम्।
यत्र देवो महादेवः स्वयं ज्योतिर्मयो हरः॥ ३॥
सोमराजेन संपूज्य त्रयस्त्रिंशत्कोटिभिः।
अमरैः सेवितं नित्यं ज्योतिर्लिङ्गं सनातनम्॥ ४॥
स्कन्दोऽपि भगवान् यत्र सिद्धक्षेत्रे व्यवस्थितः।
त्रिवेणीसंगमे पुण्ये सोमनाथो विराजते॥ ५॥
चन्द्रमाः क्षयरोगेण ग्रस्तो दक्षशापतः।
शिवपूजनमात्रेण रोगमुक्तः सुशोभनः॥ ६॥

यत्र कृष्णो महायोगी स्वधाम गतवान् प्रभुः॥ ९॥

सर्वपापविनिर्मुक्तः शिवसायुज्यमाप्नुयात्॥ १०॥
