Many people asking for translation, thus posting in the main thread. This is inspired from an Ode to Lord Shiva, considered the God of the Gods and The Destroyer according to Hindu Mythology. The language is Sanskrit. I was blow when I saw RC did a song in Sanskrit, and it sounds sick. I have compiled the parts used in the song along with English Translation for anyone who is curious: Starts with 'Gayatri Mantra' followed by the 'Strota' (Ode). Devadevam jagannatham devesam vrushabhadwajam, Namami sirasa devam, kim no mrutyu karishyathi. The Lord, Who is the God of gods, Who is the lord of the earth, And who has the bull flag. What can death do to the one, Who salutes with his head to the god. Anatham avyayam santham akshamala dharam haram, Who is limitless, Who cannot be explained, Who is peaceful, Who is the killer, And who wears the garland of ruraxs (literally translates to furious eyes. Aaandham, paramam nithyam, kaivalya pada dhayinam, Who is happiness, Who is beyond thought, Who is stable, And who grants salvation. Swargapavarga datharam srushti sthithyanthakarinam, Who grant heaven and salvation, Who looks after creation, upkeep and destruction. This keeps repeating, with some other names of Shiva thrown in along with 'Namah/Namami' which means 'I bow to thee'.
@aviralkaul2203 they lived way before the first greekoindian contact with Alexander the great,although some greek philosophers in the late hellenistic Era actually were influenced by sintharta gautama and his philosophy
Indo Aryans. They try to blot it out, but you can’t. Shared Swastika ( no, not genocide ), shared the Vedas, caste system comes from this symbiosis. Indians are our ancient family.
Anyone who likes Sanskrit molded with metal music should go check out this band called Rudra. They are the fathers of Vedic Metal and most of their lyrics are written in Sanskrit. The vocalist Kathir from Rudra has given the vocals for this song.
I am 100% European. My Pagan brothers might disagree with me for this or call me ludicrous, but I worship both our ancestor's god, Odin and Lord Shiva. Hindu people may call me ludicrous for such, but these are my gods. I bow to my god, Lord Shiva. Namah, Lord Shiva. I bow to you, Wodin.
Hinduism and Germanic Paganism have the same Indo-European origin and are spiritually connected. Because of this it's good for European pagans to learn from Indian religions as they are the last unbroken tradition of Indo-European spirituality
@@Arch_Avesit's no one else's fault but the European's who forgot about spirituality. Christianity is spiritual, Islam is spiritual. Every religion ever is spiritual.
@@Billswiftgti The European people did not simply forget, their traditions were stolen from them. Corrupted kings and aristocrats converted to Christianity for political gain then forced their subjects to do the same. Sure Christianity and Islam are "spiritual" but their Semitic and totally foreign to Indo-European peoples.
@@Arch_Aves Europeans leave too much on their state, my people were under Ottoman rule for 400 years and never converted, at least most of them. Don't blame the state for something YOU should do.
as any roting christ song! this is mature BM whos give to power and hate to religion but hate not to destroyng everything but build inside you own spirit and soul!
WOW! I'm from India, the land where Sanskrit was born..yet, never heard anything like that...what a creation...the word "anandam" means "happiness", never would have believed happiness can be expressed in such a dark way...it's like mixing life with death, and creating something unique..
hi, I'm from india never heard old Sanskrit slokas in black metal genre never been done in ages and nobody can expect sakis...been a die hard fan of rotting christ since last 14yrs and got a chance to meet sakis on Bangalore tour..long live RC.keep the horns rising
Im an atheist, but damn! This song is so hypnotic, makes me want to ''pray'' to the universe while I'm under open sky and I'll wait for the perfect thunder storm till I get freeze to feel the absolute cold to the core
Be an atheist, but try falling the inner calling that this song may have awakened. Don't (I know you won't) get blindly swayed by organized religious propaganda. But seek spirituality, it has little to do with religion or even, God.
@@gorahindu3196 yeah and they worship Kali just another form of Christianity and I'm not telling u why because u were probably high during bible study and well no one cares that ur an atheist or Hindi or whatever u know why I one worship 🎅 well because I'm a good boy with lots of toys and yeah no one cares about athiesm or agnostism because they just wanna down on God tpah disdnt u know u can't love ur self if u don't love the father gahhh and I thought my dad was a giver I wonder

Man I feel like I’m going to the temple in my hometown and the monk are singing death metal, no kidding the monk in Buddism mostly the pray in Bali Sanskrit
Small pronounciation tip: The consonants with a dot beneath or above are pronounced "retroflex", meaning with a curled back tongue. It's what makes all Indian accents so instantly recognisable.one exception is the n with the dots. With the dot below it is pronounced retroflex, when above velar, so like an n in English before a k/c or g. The other is the m with the dot. In ancient times it marked that the preceeding vowel was nasalised, ie spoken "through" the nose, but this is not done anymore generally.
This gives me goosebumps every time! Captures the spirit of Shiva as Rudra/AdiYogi. Totally imagining sitting at the foot of the mighty, unforgiving Himalaya & listening to this...
this song is absolutely insane! A greek black metal band singing about hindu mythology in Sanskrit! If that's not secularism through globalization I don't know what is.
When I asked the lead guitarist of one of my favourite bands, which band he loves the most, he said "Rotting Christ". It was a surprise. But with each listening I understand him a bit better.
The song name is देवदेवं which is in Sanskrit language, pronounced as “Dēvadēvaṁ” and it means “God of Gods”. The whole song atmosphere and lyrics are in Sanskrit (sacred language of Hindu) dedicated to many Hindu gods, lords and goddess
I introduced myself to Rotting Christ back in 2007 and instantly became a fan. The first song I heard will always be my favourite, Serve in heaven. I am an Indian and had being following this band since back then, not just because of this song. Big fan Sakis back since Non Serviam.
First time I came across this stuff. I am a die hard heavy metal fan. I love Eleine, Alisha White, Melisha and other metal singers. Can't believe to see some ancient hindu stuff. Tons of love from India. I heard Rotting Christ in Ancient Greek it is also a marvel.
Been listening this prayer all and all again. It's sacred. I am following Rotting Christ since 16 years. You never stop amaze me. Look at your music and what you achieve!
its not! its just a one small thing taken into BM just like any other elements of any religion...dont forgett hindu culture it was given to them by WHITE ppl.. all knowleage their got is from whte european ppl...
Great song as expected from RC, Therion also made a song depicting Hindu Culture with "Eye Of Shiva". Metal bands should explore more this wondrous culture.
When a prayer sounds like a summoning and a line says one who wears a garland of plucked eyes you know that Lord Shiva the destroyer is a rebel and a metal GOD
Sanskrit ( autoglotónimo संस्कृतम् saṃskṛtam ) is a classical language of India , plus one of the oldest documented , after the Hittite and Mycenaean Greek Indo-European languages Sanskrit is mainly used as a ceremonial language in Hindu rituals , in the form of hymns and mantras. Its pre-classic form , Vedic Sanskrit ( the ritual language of the Vedic religion ) is one of the oldest members of the Indo-European family
Hindus, I am glad your gods have not yet been stomped out. Props to those who can hail to their gods without being painted an outcast to the mainstream masses of christianity and its components. We may hail to different gods, hindus, but cheers to you. And cheers to those gods you hail, theyre still prominent.
Too late my man the MSM here in India are trying to portray us as bad. Making fun of Hindus is secular and criticizing the other religions makes us intolerant. I am not against criticism of religions, but targeting only one and leaving others causes segregation and spreads hate between people of respective faiths.
Not a lot of people will notice this. I absolutely love how the guitars were never palm muted during the whole song. That's a modern metal thing to do but this is not a metal song. It's a prayer. All the chords were allowed to play fully to respect the religious element of this song.
Dear Mata Kali, remove the harmful abusive people from any state service, demonstrate to us your protection dear mata Kali. Establish the balance. Give No permission to abuse the people like I and myself.
Mannn. Rotting Christ has been one of the most consistent metal band for the past 25 years. Not one of their release was bad. Followed their transition from early grindcore right until now. Never disappoint. Also nice to see Rudra's vocalist got a chance here. Underrated band. Hail RC!

@@naraendrareddy273 in early definitions, paganism meant any religion that didn't come from abraham. Therefore, Hinduism is the largest pagan religion and also the oldest religion still being practiced.
@@naraendrareddy273 Paganism also means belief in multiple gods. For example Christianity, Judaism, Islam is all one God. Paganism is one of the earliest kinds of religion humans have been practicing. Usually belief in gods of nature or god of the sky, god of death etcetera. Almost all paganism religions involve human and child sacrifice, so it's usually not a very nice thing.
@@johantitulaer1052 Pagan religions are ancient...times when death rates were much higher than today. Moreover, those religions like Hinduism consider death to be an integral part of life. NICE is just a matter of perspective.
@May ur plz don't be an American and assume everyone is illiterate of the scriptures. Assumption leads to folly and pride. As far as learning Sanskrit is concerned, it is futile to assume a person with my last name has null knowledge of the dead language if not more. Reject your obtained wisdom, there may be more to gather. Tatha astu.
it seems much more logical to me that there are gods in everything around us, as opposed to one god who’s responsible for everything sitting up in heaven watching us, jealous for our love...
What Hindu . what Greek. What Islam..... music binds us all and this type of an arrangement is an experience... from darkness to light....it is epic.... timeless and is the end and the beginning of time . From dinosaurs to humanoids to cyber bots AI...its all and everything
I just discovered these guys a few days ago and...i never knew metal could be like this. I’ve never heard any band like them before. They’re fuckin amazing
A very refined sound. Rotting Christ is really evolving. Fantastic cultural exploration and a similar sound to Xibalba great parallels. Also I might add the art in this video is fascinating.
Absolutely gorgeous. First experience with Greek heavy music was Aphrodite's Child album 666. Apparently, Greece still makes amazing epic music. Hell yeah.
I drive a truck full of boom sticks on uneven terrain and this song helps calm me down.... Can't imagine the anxiety without relaxing metal as such... Hail Sheva

I have finally found you, the band I have been looking for all this time. Eternal Gratitude to You Rotting Christ.
🙏Namastè🙏 love from Switzerland🇨🇭 hail lord Shiva 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 i love mythology with melodic metal 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Nothing is more metal than Hinduism! Har Har Mahadeva🚩🕉
Hell yes \m/
This gives me goosebumps every time! Captures the spirit of Shiva as Rudra/AdiYogi. Totally imagining sitting at the foot of the mighty, unforgiving Himalaya & listening to this...
just having one of my heaviest goosebumps after listening to this piece.
this song is absolutely insane! A greek black metal band singing about hindu mythology in Sanskrit! If that's not secularism through globalization I don't know what is.
Metal unites \m/
When I asked the lead guitarist of one of my favourite bands, which band he loves the most, he said "Rotting Christ". It was a surprise. But with each listening I understand him a bit better.
Shiva - The official God of Metal! \m/
SuperBnsk Shiva listens to Behemoth too.
ceremony of shiva ❤❤
Krishna, in alternative. 🧡🕉️🕉️🕉️
No I am Judas I. a evil Archangel. Love Josh.
Thank you, so true, but Kali is of Black Metal . Hail Kali and Shiva his consort!!!@!
The song name is देवदेवं which is in Sanskrit language, pronounced as “Dēvadēvaṁ” and it means “God of Gods”. The whole song atmosphere and lyrics are in Sanskrit (sacred language of Hindu) dedicated to many Hindu gods, lords and goddess
Saya suka lagu roting christ...bersemangat..hantu pun takut dengar lagu ini..👍
I introduced myself to Rotting Christ back in 2007 and instantly became a fan. The first song I heard will always be my favourite, Serve in heaven. I am an Indian and had being following this band since back then, not just because of this song. Big fan Sakis back since Non Serviam.
Non Serviam Keep the Spirit Alive 🤘
Thank you for doing a song on Hinduism for a change... love this \m/
Καλά εντάξει...Τι φτιάχνουν οι άνθρωποι!!!Είμαι υπερήφανος που είστε Έλληνες.Νόμιζα οτι κάθε ελπίδα στη μουσική είχε χαθεί.
MANJI27 Ναι φιλαράκι οι Rotting Crist δεν θα σαπίσουν ποτέ πάντα θα δίνουν πόνο σε κάθε άλμπουμ non serviam αδερφέ \m/
Ειμαι ελληνας και ινδουιστης με εστειλε το κομματι και εχω σταματησει χρονια να ακουω μεταλ.
First time I came across this stuff. I am a die hard heavy metal fan. I love Eleine, Alisha White, Melisha and other metal singers. Can't believe to see some ancient hindu stuff. Tons of love from India. I heard Rotting Christ in Ancient Greek it is also a marvel.
Yeah this is my 50th time rewatching in a row, what of it?
It’s probably everyone’s
Been listening this prayer all and all again. It's sacred. I am following Rotting Christ since 16 years. You never stop amaze me. Look at your music and what you achieve!
This is such an emotional piece of art .... Hail Shiva 👽👽🤘🏼🤘🏼
Shiva ma ki chut... hahaha
I show this to people when they ask me about my religion
What's ur religion u tease huh!!!! Christ's snow man 💩 poop Rotten Christ
Shoutout from India!!!!!
You need to come on tour here!!!!
Hinduism is currently one of the most metal cultures out there other than the ancient pagans
lol
And the only pagan religion that has stood the test of times, CONVERT WE SHALL NOT (felt like gandalf when i typed that)
lol
alphamaydus more than Hinduism, it is Sanatan Spirituality 😃
its not! its just a one small thing taken into BM just like any other elements of any religion...dont forgett hindu culture it was given to them by WHITE ppl.. all knowleage their got is from whte european ppl...
Great song as expected from RC, Therion also made a song depicting Hindu Culture with "Eye Of Shiva". Metal bands should explore more this wondrous culture.
Many bands from black metal scene . put hindu culture to their lyrics.
Love from Germany. Inspiring song and band. Love rotting christ.
When a prayer sounds like a summoning and a line says one who wears a garland of plucked eyes you know that Lord Shiva the destroyer is a rebel and a metal GOD
Sanskrit ( autoglotónimo संस्कृतम् saṃskṛtam ) is a classical language of India , plus one of the oldest documented , after the Hittite and Mycenaean Greek Indo-European languages Sanskrit is mainly used as a ceremonial language in Hindu rituals , in the form of hymns and mantras. Its pre-classic form , Vedic Sanskrit ( the ritual language of the Vedic religion ) is one of the oldest members of the Indo-European family
figures it would be islam and destruction used in one sentence
Ilya Kuryakin where is islam written?
Sanskrit is a hindu language
Διονύσης Σίβας.
So basically Sanskrit is to Hindi what Latin is to Italian?
not only India,its ancient language of Hindu and Hinduism thats include Nepal too
Hindus, I am glad your gods have not yet been stomped out. Props to those who can hail to their gods without being painted an outcast to the mainstream masses of christianity and its components. We may hail to different gods, hindus, but cheers to you. And cheers to those gods you hail, theyre still prominent.
The Nagalfar awesome comment couldn’t agree more . Hail the Hindu Gods .
Too late my man the MSM here in India are trying to portray us as bad. Making fun of Hindus is secular and criticizing the other religions makes us intolerant.
I am not against criticism of religions, but targeting only one and leaving others causes segregation and spreads hate between people of respective faiths.
We will never let our culture die!
Cheers to you too mate!
Hail Zeus
@@Headache756and the situation keeps worsening 😔
_¡¡"Wow!!!, Magnífico y en Sánscrito, la Canción a Shiva; Dios de la Destrucción y uno de los Creadores del Universo en la mitología Hindú🔥🎼💯_
Not a lot of people will notice this.
I absolutely love how the guitars were never palm muted during the whole song. That's a modern metal thing to do but this is not a metal song. It's a prayer.
All the chords were allowed to play fully to respect the religious element of this song.
greeting from Nepal🇳🇵🇳🇵
Man is God asleep
And God is man awakened..
Truths.
Om Namah Shivay!
Satya✋
Om namah Shivaya
Hmmm
Dear Mata Kali, remove the harmful abusive people from any state service, demonstrate to us your protection dear mata Kali. Establish the balance. Give No permission to abuse the people like I and myself.
How do you know about Kali Maa?
Jai maha kali
Over the years I've listened to this often. Easily one of my favourite songs.
i am from a hindu family but an athiest.....i love this one good job
Still Hindu
Indo Greek 🇮🇳🇬🇷
Proud to be half Indian and half greek 💪 卐
sir/ms you are authorized to use this symbol. its yours. take it back
Damn brother good for you,may proto Indo European paganism rise again
Mannn. Rotting Christ has been one of the most consistent metal band for the past 25 years. Not one of their release was bad. Followed their transition from early grindcore right until now. Never disappoint. Also nice to see Rudra's vocalist got a chance here. Underrated band.
Hail RC!
Underrated ? They are one of most famous band in Greece :))

The best art sound of my life, Rotting Christ is amazing they are the best of the best. Congratulations.... of brazil.
I can't believe it took me so long to hear something from this guys. But, well, I'm glad now I did.
Hi baby
Hinduism is the most glorious Pagan Religion
I'm a Proud Hindu, a Proud Pagan🤘
What's pagan exactly and how is it related to Hinduism?
@@naraendrareddy273 in early definitions, paganism meant any religion that didn't come from abraham. Therefore, Hinduism is the largest pagan religion and also the oldest religion still being practiced.
@@naraendrareddy273 Paganism also means belief in multiple gods. For example Christianity, Judaism, Islam is all one God. Paganism is one of the earliest kinds of religion humans have been practicing. Usually belief in gods of nature or god of the sky, god of death etcetera. Almost all paganism religions involve human and child sacrifice, so it's usually not a very nice thing.
@@johantitulaer1052 Pagan religions are ancient...times when death rates were much higher than today. Moreover, those religions like Hinduism consider death to be an integral part of life. NICE is just a matter of perspective.
I come back to this every now and then.. so peaceful 😌🔥✨
Listen to this while rock climbing, out of this world
Afghan boogie beast mode . That’s awesome
It's not anti-god, instead its a prayer
@May ur fantastic answer.
@May ur Can I please steal that answer of your's for future arguments? One cannot put words in a better way than this!
@May ur plz don't be an American and assume everyone is illiterate of the scriptures. Assumption leads to folly and pride. As far as learning Sanskrit is concerned, it is futile to assume a person with my last name has null knowledge of the dead language if not more. Reject your obtained wisdom, there may be more to gather. Tatha astu.
@@swarnadeepbhattacharya6809 not every American is illiterate. Even some of us white folks are rebels, and educated.
it seems much more logical to me that there are gods in everything around us, as opposed to one god who’s responsible for everything sitting up in heaven watching us, jealous for our love...
What Hindu . what Greek. What Islam..... music binds us all and this type of an arrangement is an experience... from darkness to light....it is epic.... timeless and is the end and the beginning of time . From dinosaurs to humanoids to cyber bots AI...its all and everything
No words can describe this! Unic masterpiece!
Masterpiece and video. I just love this! Namaste guys
The spell of Shiva is about to be completed
Incredible mantra/song/prayer/wtf/absolutely amazing…
Om Namah Shivaay 🙏 Jai Mahakal 🕉️
Gives me chills down my spine and goosebumps all over powerful stuff....
Indian musicians should take notes, after all it's in Sanskrit!
Pritam chutiya ye bhi copy karega.

Bhai there are Indian bands fusing classical Indian with rock/metal. Check out Thaikkudam Bridge and Agam for starters.
Infernal Wrath - Inside of Me
Everyone thinks natraj is cool till they know the moment he starts dancing is the moment when everything ends
Tandava!
Rudra Tandava
and that's why Nataraja is so cool
I just discovered these guys a few days ago and...i never knew metal could be like this. I’ve never heard any band like them before. They’re fuckin amazing
A very refined sound. Rotting Christ is really evolving. Fantastic cultural exploration and a similar sound to Xibalba great parallels. Also I might add the art in this video is fascinating.
Absolutely gorgeous. First experience with Greek heavy music was Aphrodite's Child album 666. Apparently, Greece still makes amazing epic music. Hell yeah.
I'm required to listen to this daily even though I have no clue what it is about. It sounds so epic
You people have made most Indian metal song that can be ever made... Love from India🤘
I was hit by a car 9 months ago. This song helped in my recovery \,,/
I drive a truck full of boom sticks on uneven terrain and this song helps calm me down.... Can't imagine the anxiety without relaxing metal as such... Hail Sheva
Wow, amazing!
I don’t get it but ok
Davenson 411 very true, the Shiva help
How
Without knowing meaning of mantra
When I heard the song I thought it was pretty similar to Rudra's vocalist, turns out it is him lol. Awesome stuff
The energy from this music is incredible.
This sound is extremely awesome for my spirit!
