Pallavī:
With my mind I remember
Mahāgaṇapati, Who is adored by Vasiṣṭha, Vāmadeva
and others.|
Caraṇa:
With my mind I remember
Mahāgaṇapati, Who is the son of Mahādeva, Who is bowed upon by
‘‘Guruguha,’’ Who is resplendent like millions of
thorn-apples together, Who is quiet, Who likes epics and dramas, Who has mouse
as a vehicle, and Who likes modaka.||1||
