Aarti Gajavadan Vinayaka Ki
आरती गजबदन विनायक की
Three tight verses of epithets — the elephant face, the tawny eyes, the smoke-grey body, the broad belly.
Dedicated toLord Ganeshaआरती गजबदन विनायक की।सुर-मुनि-पूजित गणनायक की ॥
एकदन्त शशिभाल गजानन,विघ्नविनाशक शुभगुण कानन।शिवसुत वन्द्यमान-चतुरानन,दुःखविनाशक सुखदायक की ॥
ऋद्धि-सिद्धि-स्वामी समर्थ अति,विमल बुद्धि दाता सुविमल-मति।अघ-वन-दहन अमल अबिगत गति,विद्या-विनय-विभव-दायक की ॥
पिंगलनयन, विशाल शुण्डधर,धूम्रवर्ण शुचि वज्रांकुश-कर।लम्बोदर बाधा-विपत्ति-हर,सुर-वन्दित सब विधि लायक की ॥

Jai Ganesh Deva ↗Ganapati Ki Seva Mangal Meva ↗What does Aarti Gajavadan Vinayaka Ki mean?
A short aarti built almost entirely of compound epithets, with no narrative at all. What it chooses to ask for is worth noticing: the verse that names Riddhi and Siddhi — prosperity and attainment, seated to his right and left — goes on to ask not for either of them but for vimal buddhi, clear intelligence, and for learning and humility. The physical description in the last verse is precise rather than decorative: tawny eyes, smoke-grey skin, thunderbolt and goad, the broad belly.
