There are two different versions of Adi Guru Shankaracharya's Guru Ashtakam that one comes across on the internet:

1)शरीरं सुरुपं तथा वा कलत्रं
यशश्चारू चित्रं धनं मेरुतुल्यम्
मनश्चेन्न लग्नं गुरोरंघ्रिपद्मे
ततः किं ततः किं ततः किं ततः किम्

2)शरीरं सुरुपं सदा रोग मुक्तम
यशश्चारू चित्रं धनं मेरुतुल्यम्
मनश्चेन्न लग्नं गुरोरंघ्रिपद्मे
ततः किं ततः किं ततः किं ततः किम्

While the first version is the more cited one, the second one also makes sense to me (शरीरं सुरुपं सदा रोग मुक्तम- The body is beautiful and free from diseases)
And therefore, that confuses me about which is the original version.

Any help in clearing this confusion would be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
नवनिता दास
