Chalisa:

Jaya jaya ganapati gan raaju, 
mangala bharana karana shubha kaaju .

Jaya gajabadana sadana sukhadaataa,
vishva vinaayaka buddhi vidhaata.

Vakra tunda shuchi shunda suhaavana, 
tilaka tripunda bhaala mana bhaavana.

Raajata mani muktana ura maala, 
svarna mukuta shira nayana vishaala.

Pustaka paani kuthaara trishuulam, 
modaka bhoga sugandhita phoolam.

Sundara piitaambara tana saajita, 
charana paaduka muni mana raajita.

Dhani shiva suvana shadaanana bhraata, 
gaurii lalana vishva-vidhaata.

Riddhi siddhi tava chanvara sudhaare, 
mushaka vaahana sohata dvaare.

Kahaun janma shubha kathaa tumhaari, 
ati shuchi paavana mangala kaari.

Eka samaya giriraaj kumaari, 
putra hetu tapa kinha bhaari.

Bhayo yagya jaba puurna anuupa, 
taba pahunchyo tuma dhari dvija ruupa.

Atithi jaani kai gauri sukhaari, 
bahuvidhi sevaa kari tumhaari.

Ati prasanna hvai tuma vara diinha, 
maatu putra hita jo tapa kiinha.

Milahi putra tuhi buddhi vishaala, 
binaa garbha dhaarana yahi kaala.

Gananaayaka, guna gyaana nidhaana, 
puujita prathama ruupa bhagavana.

Asa kahi antardhyaana ruupa hvai, 
palana para baalaka svaruupa hvai.

Bani shishu rudana jabahi tuma thaana, 
lakhi mukha sukha nahin gauri samaan.

Sakala magana, sukha mangala gaavahin, 
nabha te surana sumana varshaavahin.

Shambhu uma, bahu dana lutavahin, 
sura munijana, suta dekhana aavahin.

Lakhi ati aananda mangala saaja, 
dekhana bhi aaye shani raaja.

Nija avaguna guni shani mana maahin, 
baalaka, dekhan chaahata naahin.

Giraja kachhu mana bheda badhaayo, 
utsava mora na shani tuhi bhaayo.

Kahana lage shani, mana sakuchaai, 
kaa karihau, shishu mohi dikhaai.

Nahin vishvaasa, uma ur bhayau, 
shani so baalaka dekhana kahyau.

Padatahin, shani driga kona prakaasha, 
baalaka shira udi gayo aakaasha.

Giraja giriin vikala hvai dharani,

Haahaakaara machyo kailaasha, 
shani kiinhyon lakhi suta ka naasha.

Turata garuda chadhi Vishnu sidhaaye, 
kaati chakra so gaja shira laaye.

Baalaka ke dhada upara dhaarayo, 
praana,mantra padha shankara darayo.

Naama 'ganesha' shambhu taba kiinhe, 
prathama puujya buddhi nidhi, vara diinhe.

Buddhi pariiksha jaba shiva kiinha, 
prithvii kar pradakshina liinha.

Chale shadaanana, bharami bhulaIi, 
rachi baitha tuma buddhi upaai.

Charana maatu-pitu ke dhara linhen, 
tinake saata pradakshina kinhen.

Dhani ganesha, kahi shiva hiya harashe, 
nabha te surana sumana bahu barase.

Tumhari mahima buddhi badaye, 
shesha sahasa mukha sakai na gaai.

Mein mati hina malina dukhaari, 
karahun kauna vidhi vinaya tumhaari.

Bhajata 'raamasundara' prabhudaasa, 
lakha prayaga, kakara, durvasa .

Aba prabhu daya dina para kijai, 
apani bhakti shakti kuchhu dijai.


DOHA:

Shri Ganesh yah chalisa, path karai dhari dhyan,
Nit nav mangal gruha bashe, lahi jagat sanman.
Sambandh apne sahstra dash, rushi panchami dinesh.

Lord Ganesh Chalisa meaning in english

Ganesh Chalisa in English:

Glory to Lord Ganesh, the Divine Son of Goddess Girija, the cause of all auspiciousness and intelligence. Ayodha Dass (the composer of these verses) humbly requests that every one be blessed with the boon of being fearless.

O Glorious Lord, consort of Parvati You are most merciful. You always bless the poor and pious devotees. Your beautiful form is adorned with the moon on Your forehead and on your ears are earrings of snakes’ hood.

The holy Ganges flows from your matted hair. The saints and sages are attracted by Your splendid appearance. Around Your neck is a garland of skulls. White ash beautifies Your Divine form and clothing of lion’s skin adorns Your body.

O Lord, the beloved daughter of Maina on Your left adds to Your splendid appearance. O Wearer of the lion’s skin, the trishul in Your hand destroys all enemies.

Nandi and Shri Ganesh along with Lord Shiva appear as beautiful as two lotuses in the middle of an ocean. Poets and philosophers cannot describe the wonderful appearance of Lord Kartikeya and the dark complexioned Ganas (attendants).

O Lord, whenever the Deities humbly sought Your assistance, You kindly and graciously uprooted all their problems. You blessed the Deities with Your generous help when the demon Tarak outraged them and You destroyed him.

O Lord, You sent Shadanan without delay and thus destroyed the evil ones Lava and Nimesh. You also destroyed the demon Jalandhara. Your renown is known throughout the world.

O Lord, Purari, You saved all Deities and mankind by defeating and destroying the demons Tripurasura. You blessed Your devotee Bhagirath and he was able to accomplish his vow after rigorous penance.

O Gracious One, devotees always sing Your glory. Even the Vedas are unable to describe Your greatness. No one is as generous as You.

Lord, when the ocean was churned and the deadly poison emerged, out of Your deep compassion for all, You drank the poison and saved the world from destruction. Your throat became blue, thus You are known as Nilakantha.

When Lord Rama worshipped You, He became victorious over the king of demons, Ravan. When Lord Rama wished to worship Thee with one thousand lotus flowers, the Divine Mother, to test the devotion of Shri Ram, hid all the flowers at Your request.

O Lord, You kept on looking at Shri Ram, who wished to offer His lotus-like eyes to worship Thee. When You observed such intense devotion, You were delighted and blessed Him. You granted His heart’s desire.

Glory be unto You O Gracious, Infinite, Immortal, All-pervading Lord. Evil thoughts torture me and I keep on traveling aimlessly in this world of mundane existence. No relief seems to be coming my way.

O Lord! I beseech Your help and see your divine blessing at this very moment. Save and protect me. Destroy my enemies with Your Trishul. Release me from the torture of evil thoughts.

O Lord, when I am in distress, neither my parents, brothers, sisters nor loved ones can relieve my suffering. I depend only on You. You are my hope. Eliminate the cause of this tremendous torture and bless me with Your compassion.

O Lord, You bless the down-trodden with prosperity and grant wisdom to the ignorant. Lord, due to my limited knowledge, I omitted to worship Thee. Please forgive me and shower Your grace upon me.

O Lord Sankar, You are the destroyer of all miseries. You remove the cause of all obstacles and grant Your devotees eternal bliss. The saints and sages meditate upon Thy most beautiful form. Even celestial beings like Sharad and Narad bow in reverence to You.

O Lord, prostrations to You. Even Brahma is unable to describe Thy greatness. Whosoever recites these verses with faith and devotion receives Your infinite blessings.

Devotees who chant these verses with intense love become prosperous by the grace of Lord Shiva. Even the childless wishing to have children, have their desires fulfilled after partaking of Shiva-prasad with faith and devotion.

On Trayodashi (13th day of the dark and bright fortnights) one should invite a pandit and devotedly make offerings to Lord Shiva. Those who fast and pray to Lord Shiva on Trayodashi are always healthy and prosperous.

Whosoever offers incense, prasad and performs aarti to Lord Shiva, with love and devotion, enjoys material happiness and spiritual bliss in this world and hereafter ascends to the abode of Lord Shiva. The poet prays that Lord Shiva removed the suffering of all and grants them eternal bliss.

O Universal Lord, every morning as a rule I recite this Chalisa with devotion. Please bless me so that I may be able to accomplish my material and spiritual desires.
