Mahamrityunjaya Mantra or Tyambakam Mantra

Om tryambakam yajamahe
Sugandhim pushti vardanum
Urdvarukamiva bandhanaat
Mrityormuksheeya maamritat swaha

In the translation of Arthur Berriedale Keith, 1914):
"OM. We worship and adore you, O three-eyed one, O Shiva. You are sweet gladness, the fragrance of life, who nourishes us, restores our health, and causes us to thrive. As, in due time, the stem of the cucumber weakens, and the gourd is freed from the vine, so free us from attachment and death, and do not withhold immortality."

Wikapedia:
Om. We worship The Three-Eyed Lord Shiva who is fragrant and who increasingly nourishes the devotees. Worshipping him may we be liberated from death for the sake of immortality just as the ripe cucumber easily separates itself from the binding stalk.
