Shri Lakshmi Aarti Lyrics
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata, Maiya Jai Lakshmi Mata,
Tumko Nishdin Sevat,Har Vishnu Dhyavat.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata..x(2)
Uma Rama Bharmani, Tum Hi Jag Mata,
Surya Chandrma Dhyavat Naard Rishee Gata.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata
Durga Roop Niranjani, Sukh Sampati Data,
Jo Koi Tum Ko Dhayata, Riddhi Siddhi Pata.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata
Tum Patal Nivasini, Tum Hi Shubh Data,
Karam-Prabhav-Prakashini, Bhav Nidhi Ki Trata.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata
Jis Ghar Main Tum Rahti, Sab Sadgun Aata,
Maiyaa sab Sadgun Aata, Sub Sambhav Ho Jata,
Man Nahi Ghabrata.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata
Tum Bin Yagya Na Hove, Vastra No Koi Pata,
Khan-Pana Ka Vaibhav, Sub Tumse Pata.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata
Shubhgun Mandir Sundar, Sheerodadhi Jata,
Ratan Chaturdhsh Tum Bin, Koi Nahi Pata.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata
Mahalakshmi Ji Ki Aarti, Jo Koi Jan Gata,
Pur Anand Samata, Pap Utar Jata.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata…
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata, Maiya Jai Lakshmi Mata,
Tumko Nishdin Sevat,Har Vishnu Dhyavat.
Om Jai Lakshmi Mata..x(2)
