Default What does this Hindu song mean?

I understand parts of it. In particular, I was wondering what is "Jaki"?

Jai Ganesh Jai Ganesh Jay Ganesh Deva,
Mata Jaki Parvati Pita Mahadeva.
Jai Ganesh?

Ek Dant Dayawant Char Bhuja Dhari,
Mastak Sindoor Sohe Moose Ki Sawari.
Jai Ganesh?

Pan Chare Phool Chare Aur Chare Mewa,
Ladduan Ka Bhog Lage Sant Kare Sewa.
Jai Ganesh?

Andhan Ko Ankh Det Korin Ko Kaya,
Banjhan Ko Putra Det Nirdhan Ko Maya.
Jai Ganesh?

Har Chare Phool Chare Aur Chare Mewa,
?Soorshyam? Sharan Aay Suphal Kije Sewa.
Jai Ganesh?

Jaki=Jisaki= whose

Jaki is just a pronunciation of SakiKin local dialect or by village people. Under poetic license , poet has used word jaki as jiski would have interrupted the flow.

Jai = hail; Mata = mother; Jaki=whose; Pita=father; Mahadeva=Shiva; Ek=one; Dant=teeth; Dayawant=kind; Char=four; Bhuja=hand; Dhari=adorning; Mastak=forehead Sindoor=vermillion; Sohe=attract; Moose=mouse; Ki=of; Sawari=vehicle.
Jai Ganesh?

Pan=beetle leaf Charhe= offer(as it means here); Phool=flowers, Aur=and; Mewa=nuts; Ladduan = laddu ; Ka=of; Bhog=offering; Lage=paid; Sant=saint; Kare=do;
Sewa=sevice.


Andhan=blind; Ko=to; Ankh=eye; Det=give; Korin=leapers; Kaya=body; barrens=Banjhan; Putra=son; Nirdhan=poor; Maya=wealth.


Har=garland; Chare=offered; Phool=flower; Sharan=refuge Aay=come; Suphal=success; Kije=keejiye=do Sewa=service.

?Soorshyam? is the name of the poet. It says Suryashyam has come to you and offers his sevices, please give him success . Better replace your name with his , if you are going to sing this bhajan.

If you want detailed translation, let me know.

Glory to you, O Lord Ganesha!
Born of Parvati, daughter of the Himalayas, and the great Shiva.

O Lord of compassion, you have a single tusk, four arms,
A vermilion mark of on your forehead, and ride on a mouse.
People offer you betel leaves, blossoms, fruits
And sweets, while saints and seers worship you.

Glory to you, O Lord Ganesha!
Born of Parvati, daughter of the Himalayas, and the great Shiva.

You bestow vision on the blind, chastened body on the leprous,
Children on the sterile, and wealth on the destitute.
We pray to thee day and night, please bestow success upon us.


Glory to you, O Lord Ganesha!
Born of Parvati, daughter of the Himalayas, and the great Shiva

Salutations to you , O Lord Ganesha, born of Parvati, the daughter of the Mountain King, Himalaya, and the great Lord Shiva. O Lord of compassion, you have a single tusk, four arms, a bright mark of vermilion on your forehead, and for conveyance the mouse. Glory, glory, all glory to you O Lord Ganesha
You bestow vision on the blind, chastened bodies on the leprous, sons on barren women and wealth on the impecunious. Glory, glory, all glory to you O Lord Ganesha
People offer you betel leaves, blossoms, dry fruits and laddies, while throngs of saints and seers attend you.
Glory, glory, all glory to you O Lord Ganesha.

Those are two translations I found on line.

The song is the Ganesh Aarti. I know because I sing it during puma for Ganesh, my Ishtar devata.
