GANESHJI'S AARTI

Jai ganesh jai ganesh jai ganesh deva I 
Mata jaki parvati, pita mahadeva II
Eka danta dayavanta, char bhuja dhari I 
Mathe sindura sohai, muse ki savari ll
                     Jai ganesh . . , II

Salutation to you, O lord Ganesha, born of Parvati, the daughter of the
Mountain King, Himalaya, and the great Lord Shiva. O lord of compassion, 
you have a single tusk, four arms, a bright mark of vermilion on your 
forehead, and for conveyance the mouse. Glory, glory, all glory . . . .

Andhan ko ankh deta I 
Korhin ko kaya II
banjhan ko putra deta I 
Nirdhan ko maya II
             Jai ganesh . . . II                        

You bestow vision on the blind, chastened bodies on the leprous, sons on 
barren women and wealth on the impeunious. 

Pana chadhe, phul chadhe I 
Aur chadhe meva II
Ladduan ko bhog lage I 
Sant karen seva ll
           Jai ganesh . . . II                     

People offer you betel leaves, blossoms, dry fruits and Iaddus, while 
throngs of saints and seers attend on you.
