Ganapati raya

Ganapati Raya mugivenu kaiyya
Sanna sanna makkaLu
Ninna seve madvaru
Tappiddalli oppikoLLyya

Chauti dina baruvanu
Iliya mele kurvanu
Dabakkantha beelvanu
Chandra nodi nakkanu
Ganapati shaapa kottanu

Baa Baa ganapa vidya kodu ganapa
Baa Baa ganapa buddi kodu ganapa

This was the prayer as children we used to sing daily evening.
