(2) Word by word Meaning of Lyrics ॐ = oṁ = is a sacred/mystical syllable in Sanatan Dharma or hindu religions, i.e. Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, and Sikhism (symbol of ultimate reality). त्र्यम्बकम् = tryambakam, त्रि (Try=Three)+ अम्बकम् (Ambakam=Eyes)= “one who has three eyes” referring to Rudra or Siva who share the same attributes. (1) Firstly, in His ‘vishwaroopa’ or universal form, the three eyes symbolically signify the sun, moon and fire. Sunlight during the day, moon at night and fire in their absence signify illumination. (2) Secondly, the pair of eyes give sight to the material world and its experiences. The third eye is symbolic of ‘atma-jnana’ or knowledge of the Self through which one sees the higher reality. Kamadeva or Manmatha is the God of Desire perennially churning the mind and causing restlessness. यजामहे=yajāmahe = We worship, adore, honour, revere you सुगन्धिम् = sugandhim = sweet smelling, the fragrant (spiritual Essence).

Thus ‘urvarukam means deadly and overpowering diseases. The pumpkin or cucumber interpretation is given to show detachment. The diseases are those caused by the negative effects of the three gunas and therefore (a) ‘avidya’ – ignorance or falsehood and (b) ‘sadripu’ – a constraint of the physical body. बन्धनात् (bandhanāt)=means bound down, Bondage [of Samsara or Worldly Life]'I am bound down just like a cucumber (to a vine)'. मृत्यु (mrtyu) = Death मुक्षीय (mukṣīya) = Liberation मृत्योर्मुक्षीय mṛtyormukṣīya = Free, Liberate us from the fear of Death मामृतात् (Maa-Amrtaat): Liberate us from the death (for the sake of Immortality); मा (Maa) = Not, अमृत (Amrta) = Immortal
