Song from the album "Maha Ganesha - Sonu Niigaam"

Vakratunda mahakaya suryakoti samaprabha
Vakratunda mahakaya suryakoti samaprabha
Nirbighnam kuru me deba sarbakaryesu sarvada

Sumukhaschya Ekadantaschya kapilo gajkarnakah
Sumukhaschya Ekadantaschya kapilo gajkarnakah
Lambodaraschya vikato bhignonasho ganadhipah

Dhumraketu ganadhaksheyo bhalachandro gajananah
Dhumraketu ganadhaksheyo bhalachandro gajananah
Dwadasotani namani yah patheth srinuyadapi

Vidyarambhe vivahe cha prabeshe nirgame tatha
Vidyarambhe vivahe cha prabeshe nirgame tatha
Sangrame sankate chaiba bighnastashya na jayate

Suklam baradharam devam sasivarnah chatubhrujam
Suklam baradharam devam sasivarnah chatubhrujam
Prasannabadanam dhyayet sarbo bighnopashantaye

Namashtasmey ganeshaya brahmavidya pradayine
Namashtasmey ganeshaya brahmavidya pradayine
Yashya gashtya yate nama bighna sagara sosane

Yannama grahana deba api mangala mapnuban
Yannama grahana deba api mangala mapnuban
Riddhi siddhi pradataram
Riddhi siddhi pradataram
Tam namami gajananam
Tam namami gajananam
