Lyrics (Devanagari)

जय महागणपति, स्वामी जय महागणपति।

दश-भुज शोभित मूरत, सिद्धि-बुद्धि सहिता॥

मूषक वाहन सुन्दर, मोदक हाथ लिये।

पाश-अंकुश धारी, वर-अभय कर दिये॥

गण-पति गण-नायक, विघ्न-विनाशक हे।

ऋद्धि-सिद्धि के दाता, मंगल-मूल अहे॥

आरती जो नित गावे, मन-वांछित फल पावे।

महागणपति कृपा से, सब विघ्न मिटावे॥

English Transliteration

jaya mahaganapati, swami jaya mahaganapati,

dasha-bhuja shobhita murata, siddhi-buddhi sahita,

mushaka vahana sundara, modaka hatha liye,

pasha-ankusha dhari, vara-abhaya kara diye,

gana-pati gana-nayaka, vighna-vinashaka he,

riddhi-siddhi ke data, mangala-mula ahe,

arati jo nita gave, mana-vanchhita phala pave,

mahaganapati kripa se, saba vighna mitave.

Meaning

Victory to Lord Mahaganpati, the supreme master of the celestial ganas. Your radiant ten-armed form is seated with the goddesses Siddhi and Buddhi at your side. You ride the swift mushaka, holding the sweet modaka in your hand, the noose and the elephant goad in others, while granting the gestures of boon-giving and fearlessness. Chief of the ganas, destroyer of every obstacle, bestower of prosperity and accomplishment, root of all auspiciousness — whoever sings this aarti with devotion receives the fulfillment of their heart and the dissolution of every impediment by your supreme grace.
