Traditional attribution
Śivānandalaharī (Wave of Śiva's Bliss)
शिवानन्दलहरी (Śivānandalaharī)

A devotional hymn of one hundred stanzas addressed to Śiva, a companion to the Saundaryalaharī devoted to the Goddess. It expresses passionate bhakti: the devotee asks that his mind settle on Śiva like a bee on a flower and surrenders entirely. One of the most widely recited stotras in South India.
