The Invocatory Sloka
 
Om

Gajananam Bhootha Ganathi Sevitam
Kapitha Jamboo Palasara Bakshitam
Umasutam Shoka Vinasa Karanam
Namani Vigneshwara Padha Pankajam

 
(I bow to Gajanana whose lotus feet destroy the obstacles,
Who is served by Gana of Shiva, who eats delicious rose-apples and mangoes,
who is the son of Uma (Parvati) and who is the destroyer of grief and obstacles)
