Sri Gana Nadham Bhajamyaham,

Sri Karam  , chinthithartha phala pradham

Pallavi

I sing about the   Lord  of Ganas  ,

Who does auspiciousness and grants us  ,

The wealth    that   we think about in our mind.

Anupallavi

Sri Guruguhagraja   magra poojyam  ,

Sri Kandathmakam   sritha   samrajyam

Anupallavi

He who is elder   to the teacher  Guha  , who is worshipped first  ,

The son of the  Lord with blue neck   and  who is the wealth ,

For all   those    who surrender  to  him.

Charanam

Ranjitha  nataka ranga   thoshanam,

Sinchitha   vara mani maya   bhooshanam

Anjaneyavatharam   subhashanam,

Kunjara mukham , Thyagaraja poshanam

Charanam

He who increases the joy of a pretty stage of Drama,

He who wears   gems which give out sound  ,

He who took incarnation of Anjaneya  who is praised well  ,

He who has an elephant face and one who protects Thyagaraja.
