Jai Ganesh, Jai Ganesh, Jai Ganesh Deva

Mata jaki Parvati, pita Mahadeva.

Ek dant dayavant, char bhuja dhari

Mathe par tilak sohe, muse ki savari

Pan chadhe, phul chadhe, aur chadhe meva

Ladduan ka bhog lage, sant kare seva. Jai Ganesh…

Andhan ko ankh det, kodhin ko kaya

Banjhan ko putra det, nirdhan ko maya

Surya shaam sharan aye, safal kije seva.

Mata jaki Parvati, pita Mahadeva. Jai Ganesh…

This is the Ganesh Aarti, a prayer which is utilised after a Ganesh puja (ritual) is conducted. It usually signifies the end of the ritual and most times comes right before the Shantipath (prayer of peace and well being) is said. One would take a thalia (sacred prayer tray) and place in the centre or close to the end of the thalia a lit deya or lit piece of camphor. 

The thalia may contain a number of additional items such as flowers, sweets, incense and any other offerings (post havan) to be made to Ganesh. The thalia is then, with the flame facing Ganesh’s  image, waved in a clockwise motion whilst the Aarti itself is being chanted. After this is done the flame is usually passed around to all who attended the puja to receive its blessings. Aarti literally means to wave a sacred flame before an image of Bhagavan.
