Navagraha Stotram Meaning in English
I bow to the Sun — brilliant as the hibiscus flower, son of Kashyapa, of great radiance, enemy of darkness, destroyer of all sins. I bow to the Moon — white as curds, conch, and snow, born from the ocean of milk, adorning Shiva's crown. (Opening verses of the 9-planet sequence — chant one verse per planet in order.)
