High up in the Himalayan mountain peaks / their lived a beautiful goddess named Parvati / Parvati was the wife of the god named Shiva / the king of all yogi's who destroys all demons / now Shiva loved to practice yoga deep in the forest / away from the world and all the things that lure us / often meditating for weeks and months / practicing detachment completely untouched / but whenever Shiva left, Parvati stayed home / often feeling sad and all alone / so one day she prayed and made a wish / for a son who she could have fun and play with / the very next morning to her surprise / a little baby laid right in front of her eyes / Parvati could hardly control her joy / for the gods had blessed her with a beautiful boy /

One day when Parvati was taking a bath / she instructed her son to protect the path / so he stood in the door just like a guard / there to make sure no one entered the yard / it was at that time when Shiva returned / not knowing that his wife recently gave birth / when he saw the boy he told him to move / not knowing who his father was the boy refused / now Shiva's like this, truth consciousness and bliss / but he's crazy when he's angry so don't get him pissed / feeling dissed by the boy Shiva started a rumble / an epic struggle that shook the jungle / / then out of nowhere Shiva's trident went chop / and that's when the boy's head was cut off / / when Parvati heard the noise coming from outside / she rushed to find that her boy had died /

All the gods quickly rushed to the scene / as soon as they heard Parvati's scream / she turned toward her Shiva with tears in her eyes / and painfully explained how the boy was there child / when Shiva realized the size of this mess / he became stressed upset and depressed / that's when the god Vishnu came up with a plan / to find another head so the boy could live again / Shiva said we'll take the first head that we find / but we really need to hurry cuz we're running out of time / deep in the jungle the gods met an elephant / a wise old being who attained enlightenment / he offered his life so the gods took his head / and quickly returned to where the boy laid dead / they placed it upon the boys body / and at first it looked funny and even ungodly / but Parvati said the head fit just like a glove / truly a face only a mother could love / when Shiva saw the boy becoming refreshed / he embraced his son and named him Ganesh /
