With calm, thriving lights –
In any court
Of gods or of men
Where you may at will
Appear,
Simple, direct and profound
Is the power you wield,
Deep and willing is the respect
You command –
In your figure are combined
In constant, delicate balance,
Massive peace and fiery energy,
Flaming beauty and tranquil
Tenderness,
And the trail you leave
Is lit
With happy offerings –
Sri Ganesh,
Prince of Knowing Harmony…
Aum.

To the edge of the woods,
A pilgrim and an emperor
Holding the scepter of life
And the weapons
Of peace –
You come out
To reach and to bless
