Ganesh ji

Remover of obstacles; first to be invoked

सुखकर्ता दुखहर्ता वार्ता विघ्नाची।

Giver of joy, remover of sorrow, who ends all talk of obstacles;

नुरवी पुरवी प्रेम कृपा जयाची॥

whose love and grace leave nothing wanting and fulfil all.

सर्वांगी सुंदर उटी शेंदुराची।

Beautiful in every limb, anointed with sindoor;

कंठी झळके माळ मुक्ताफळांची॥

at your throat gleams a necklace of pearls.

जय देव जय देव जय मंगलमूर्ती।

Victory, O god; victory, O god; victory, form of auspiciousness —

दर्शनमात्रे मनकामना पुरती॥

the mere sight of you fulfils the heart's wish.

रत्नखचित फरा तुज गौरीकुमरा।

A jewelled crown for you, son of Gauri;

चंदनाची उटी कुंकुमकेशरा॥

sandal paste, kumkum and saffron.

हिरेजडित मुकुट शोभतो बरा।

A diamond-studded crown becomes you well;

रुणझुणती नूपुरे चरणी घागरिया॥

anklets tinkle at your feet.

लंबोदर पीतांबर फणिवरबंधना।

Big-bellied, in yellow silk, girdled with the serpent king;

सरळ सोंड वक्रतुंड त्रिनयना॥

straight trunk, curved trunk, three-eyed one.

दास रामाचा वाट पाहे सदना।

Ramdas waits at your door;

संकटी पावावे निर्वाणी रक्षावे सुरवरवंदना॥

come in trouble, protect at the end — you whom the gods bow to.
