Pallavi

 

Karuna nidhiye Ganapathiye ,

Gana rasam pongum,

Jnana varam thaarai.

 

Anupallavi

 

Arul ongum  shudha Shakthi Shivakami,

Ambikai suthane, nambinen unnaye.

 

Charanam

 

Thin kani pagu , then pol iniya ,

THamizhal unnai  dinamum thudithen,

Omkara Vinayaka vigna raja,

Urugum shuddhanandan  ulla kovil vasa.

 

English translation

 

Pallavi

 

Oh Ganapathi, the treasure of mercy,

Give me the boon of eternal wisdom,

Which ebbs with the taste of music.

 

Anupallavi

 

I believed in you completely Oh Son,

Of Goddess Parvathi who is the pure power,

And who is the full of divine bliss and consort of Shiva.

Charanam

 

I prayed to you daily in Tamil,

Which is as sweet as fruit, sugar syrup and honey,

Oh Vinayaka, Oh Vignaraja,

Oh God who is in the melting mind,

Of your devotee Shudhananda.
