English translation

 

Pallavi

 

Surrender to you Divine Ganesa

Surrender to you giver of knowledge

 

Anupallavi

 

Surrender to you son of Parvathi

Surrender to you God who rides on mouse.

 

Charanam

 

1. Son of consort of God with eyes on forehead,

God who loves to wear serpent ornament,

Pretty God who is decorated with Gingelly,

God who wears studs in his ears.

 

2. God who wears pearl studded anklets

God who has for hands and arms,

God who wears golden bangles and other ornaments,

And holds rope and the goad.

 

3. God who has a big paunch and belly,

Who is the devotee of the God?

Who won over the God who holds a sugar cane bow,

And Purandara vittala who travels  on a bird.
