Pallavi

Panchamukha ganapathim bajeham
Ganapathim bajeham prapancha karanam vigna varanam varam (Pancha)

I sing about the five faced Ganapathi,
I sing about Ganapathi , who is the cause of the world,
And is the blessed elephant removing obstacles.

Anupallavi

Pancha nandikeshwara sukumaram
Vanchithartha pala sakala dayakam
Ganapathim bajeham prapancha karanam vigna varanam varam (Pancha)

He who is dear to the Five Nandi gods,
Who grants all that is desired,
I sing about that Ganapathi , who is the cause of the world,
And is the blessed elephant removing obstacles.


Charanam

Aja bhavaadhi nutha sri gajavadanam
Sujana vanditha poojitha padam
Vrijadathri giri shikara nivasinam
Thrijagan nayakam pari palakam

Elephant faced one who is worshipped by Brahma and Shiva,
Who has feet that are worshipped by good people,
Who lives at the top of the Vrijadathri mountain,
Who is the lord of the three worlds looking after them.

(madhyama kalam)
Ikshu danda kara uddandam
Rakshasadi hara jagathprachandam
Bhakshanadi sakala modaka priyam
Rakshithathyakila boomi gagana kailasa
Sura guruvaram guravaram varam (Pancha)

One who is powerful holding a sugarcane in his hand,
Who is world famous for killing of Rakshasas,
Who likes Modhaka most among all food items,
Who is the protector of all earth , sky and Kailasa,
Who is the teacher of all devas and who is a blessed teach
