Meaning:
O Most Beloved Divine Lord Sri Sai Ganesha, Thou art The Beloved Divine Child of Mother Gauri – Who is The Most Magnificient, Supreme Divine Mother of The Entire Cosmos. We worship Thee First and Foremost, before all other Gods and Godesses and bow down and offer our Most Humble Salutations to Thee. Thou art The Elephant-Faced, Beloved Divine Child of Lord Shiva – Who is The Supreme Divine Lord of The Entire Cosmos. O Lord, Thou art One-Tusked and art The Embodiment of All Virtues and Attributes. Thou art The Embodiment of Intelligence and Achievements. Thou art our Beloved Protector and art The Destroyer of all obstacles and sorrows. O Lord Sri Sai Ganesha, Thou art The Embodiment of The Primeval Sound ‘Om’. (When The Great Sage Vyasa decided to note down the Mahabharat, he had a condition that only he who would write non-stop, would be allowed to write it. Lord Sri Ganesha was the only One – Who had that Incredible Capacity and agreed immediately without any delay, even in securing a writing tool. HE immediately broke HIS sharp-pointed Tusk and got started just as HE is ever-ready to help others. Hence Lord Sri Ganesha is called as Eka Danta.)
