Om Jai Lakshmi Mata Aarti (Shri Lakshmi Aarti) Lyrics
ॐ जय लक्ष्मी माता, मैया जय लक्ष्मी माता। तुमको निशदिन सेवत, हरि विष्णु विधाता॥
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata, Maiya Jai Lakshmi Mata, Tumko nishdin sevat, Hari Vishnu Vidhata.
Victory to Mother Lakshmi; Vishnu and Brahma, the creator, worship you day and night.
उमा, रमा, ब्रह्माणी, तुम ही जग-माता। सूर्य-चन्द्रमा ध्यावत, नारद ऋषि गाता॥
Uma, Rama, Brahmani, tum hi jag-mata, Surya-Chandrama dhyavat, Narad rishi gaata.
You are Uma, Rama and Brahmani, the Mother of the world; the sun and moon meditate on you and the sage Narada sings your praise.
दुर्गा रूप निरंजनी, सुख-सम्पत्ति दाता। जो कोई तुमको ध्यावत, ऋद्धि-सिद्धि धन पाता॥
Durga roop niranjani, sukh-sampatti daata, Jo koi tumko dhyavat, riddhi-siddhi dhan paata.
In your pure form as Durga you give happiness and wealth; whoever meditates on you gains prosperity, success and riches.
तुम पाताल-निवासिनि, तुम ही शुभदाता। कर्म-प्रभाव-प्रकाशिनी, भवनिधि की त्राता॥
Tum paatal-nivaasini, tum hi shubhdaata, Karma-prabhav-prakaashini, bhavnidhi ki traata.
You dwell even in the netherworld and give all that is auspicious; you reveal the fruit of our actions and carry us across the ocean of worldly life.
जिस घर में तुम रहतीं, सब सद्गुण आता। सब सम्भव हो जाता, मन नहीं घबराता॥
Jis ghar mein tum rehtin, sab sadgun aata, Sab sambhav ho jaata, man nahin ghabraata.
In the home where you live, every virtue arrives; everything becomes possible and the mind knows no fear.
तुम बिन यज्ञ न होते, वस्त्र न कोई पाता। खान-पान का वैभव, सब तुमसे आता॥
Tum bin yagya na hote, vastra na koi paata, Khaan-paan ka vaibhav, sab tumse aata.
Without you no sacred rite could be performed and no one would have clothing; the abundance of food and drink all comes from you.
शुभ-गुण मन्दिर सुन्दर, क्षीरोदधि-जाता। रत्न चतुर्दश तुम बिन, कोई नहीं पाता॥
Shubh-gun mandir sundar, kshirodadhi-jaata, Ratna chaturdash tum bin, koi nahin paata.
Beautiful temple of every good quality, born of the ocean of milk; without you no one could gain the fourteen jewels that rose from it.
महालक्ष्मी जी की आरती, जो कोई नर गाता। उर आनन्द समाता, पाप उतर जाता॥
Mahalakshmi ji ki aarti, jo koi nar gaata, Ur aanand samaata, paap utar jaata.
Whoever sings this aarti of Mahalakshmi is filled with joy, and their sins fall away.
