Tu Sukhkarta tu Dukhharta vighnavinashak Morya |Sankati rakshi sharan tula mi Ganpatibappa Morya || dhru ||Mangalmurti tu gananayak, vakratund tu siddhivinayak |Tujhiya dari aat patalo, dei chitta maj dhyaya || 1 ||Tu sakalancha bhagyavidhata, tu vighnocha swami data |Dnyandeep ujalun aamucha, nimavi nairashyala || 2 ||Tu mata tu pita jagi ya, dnyata tu sarvasva jagi ya |Pamar mi swar ubhe bhasati, tujhi aarti gaya sankati || 3 ||Mangalmurti Morya |Ganpatibappa Morya |

Meaning (brief): You are the giver of happiness and the remover of sorrow, the destroyer of obstacles, O Morya — I have come to you seeking refuge in distress. You are Mangalmurti, the leader of the ganas, Vakratund and Siddhivinayak; I have come to your door to steady my mind on you. You are everyone's giver of fortune and the master of obstacles — light the lamp of knowledge and dispel despair. You alone are mother, father, and everything.
