Diwali Aartis / Songs:

Any Puja is incomplete without prayer songs or aartis dedicated to the particular Gods and Goddesses. The Diwali puja process includes Aartis to be sung in praise of Lord Ganesha, Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu. These aartis are believed to please the Gods and Goddesses who then bestow thier blessings upon us. The whole family gathers for the puja and sings aartis while rotating the diya all around the Deities and ringing the taali (holy bell). Every member of the family takes turn to do the rounds with the diya and ring the bell while singing the traditional aartis. Start with Sri Ganesha Mantra and Aarti.

Ganesha Mantra:

Dundala dukh bhanjana, sadaa ujala vesh
sabse pehle sumiriye, Gauri-putra Ganesh
Gauri nandan gun sadan, devan ke devesh
jungle mein mangal karo, harta vighn-kalesh.

Ganesha Ji Ki Arti:

Jai Ganesh Jai Ganesh, Jai Ganesh deva
Mata jaki Parvati, Pita Mahadeva.

Ek dant dayavant, char bhuja dhari
Mastak sindur sohe, muse ki savari,
(Repeat)Jai Ganesh...

Andhan ko ankh det, kodhyan ko kaya
Banjhan ko putra det, nirdhan ko maya,
Jai Ganesh....

Pan chadhe, pushp chadhe, aur chadhe meva
Ladduan ko bhog lage, sant kare seva,
Jai Ganesh....

Deenan ki laaj rakho, shambhu-soot hamari
kaamna ko puri karo, jaun balihari
Jai Ganesh, Jai Ganesh, Jai Ganesh deva, Mata jaki Parvata, Pita Mahadeva.
