कपित्थजम्बूफलसार भक्षितम्
उमासुतं शोकविनाशकारणं
नमामि विघ्नेश्वर पादपङ्कजम्

I prostrate myself before the lotus feet of Vighneshwara, the son of Uma, the destroyer of sorrows of his devotees, who is served by the Ganas (celestial beings), who has the face of an elephant and who takes as his food, the essence of Kapitha (wood apple) and jambu (rose apple) fruits.
