I bow to Vinayaka, who joyfully holds a modak in his hand, who always brings liberation, who wears the moon as an ornament, protector of those who delight in the world, the one leader of those who have no leader, slayer of the elephant demon, who quickly destroys the misfortune of those who bow to him.
