Among the gods, Sri Ganesh,
You seem to be the least egotist –
And that is how
One may entrust you so
With the offerings,
And that is how
You can easily go
Into
The whirling center
Of one Rhythm,
One with Swastika,
Letting flow the sound
Of Her music –
From the subtle sun-drenched
Nectar
To the balancing weight of dense
Matter,
You hold into the whirl
The offerings
And the music
Is strong and complete…

Crowds pass you by, Sri Ganesh,
Crowds address you
Everywhere,
Crowds pass by you
Everywhere –
And they expect you
To be
Always there –
Wherever and whenever
They wish you
To direct their prayers
And answer
Their needs –
But the blessings you may give
And the thriving
