Meaning:

I seek refuge with the god, who is Brahman, Who has six faces, Who applies sandal paste all over his body. Who is the great essence, Who rides on a peacock, Who is the son of Lord Shiva, and who is the lord of the heaven.

I seek refuge with the god, who is Brahman, Who shines all over, Who is saluted by all devas, Who has a temple on the banks of Kumaradhara, Who has an enticing personality and who has a very attractive body. 

Shatananam-the one who has 6 face, chandana- who has sandal paste all over his body, mahorasam-body, divya mayura vahanam-whose vehicle is a peacock
