भक्ताभिष्ट फलप्रदां त्रिनयनां जांबुनदांभ प्रभाम ।
पाणिभ्यां दधतिमसिंच जलजं दुर्धर्ष दैत्यापहाम ।।
मुक्तारत्नसुवर्ण भूषणधरां दिव्यांबरीं सुंदरीम ।
माणग्राम महेश्र्वरीं भगवतीं श्री यक्षिणीं मंगलम् ।।

त्यांत आहे माणग्राम, वास तेथे करावा
तयेग्रामी टेंब्ये वंश, माझा भक्त गणेश
त्याचे पोटी ईश्वरी अंश, तोचि योगीराज जाणावा
ग्राम आहे ओस, तेथे करावा तू वास
साह्य व्हावे भक्तांस, तपस्वी असती जे कोणी
ब्रह्मराक्षस वेताळ, पिशाच्च गणांचा मेळ
राहे तेथे सर्व काळ, मनुष्यमात्रा हिंसती
