Common devotional hymn corpus

Om, Gam, salutations to Ganapati — a seed-syllable invocation calling on Ganesha as lord of all assemblies/categories of existence.

O curved-trunked, mighty-bodied one, radiant as a million suns — make all my undertakings free of obstacles, always, O Lord.

Bowing the head to the god Vinayaka, son of Gauri, one should remember him daily — the refuge of devotees — for long life, fulfillment of desires, and success in one's aims.

I bow to Vinayaka — who joyfully holds a sweet in his hand, who ever grants liberation, who wears the crescent moon as an ornament, who protects the world in its play; the one leader of the leaderless, destroyer of the elephant-demon, who swiftly dissolves the misfortunes of those who bow to him.
