Guru

Written by Adi Shankara, this stotram glorifies the sandals of the Guru. He didn't feel worthy of even writing about his Guru's feet, so he composed this stotram to worship his Guru's footwear.

The text in IAST and in devanagari.

Chinmaya Mission also has the text in Devanagari and IAST, with an English translation.

VedicFeed has the lyrics along with a video of a beautiful rendition: https://vedicfeed.com/guru-paduka-stotram/

गुरौ न प्राप्यते यत्तन्नान्यत्रापि हि लभ्यते।
गुरुप्रसादात सर्वं तु प्राप्नोत्येव न संशयः॥

Transliteration:
gurau na prāpyate yattannānyatrāpi hi labhyate।
guruprasādāta sarvaṃ tu prāpnotyeva na saṃśayaḥ॥

English translation:
Whatever is not obtained from the Guru, cannot be obtained from elsewhere.
With the grace of the Guru one indeed gets everything.
