AADINAATH AARATI
Jay jay aarati aadi jinandaa
Naabhiraaya marudevi ko nandaa ... jay ...
Paheli aarati poojaa kije
Narabhav paamine lahaavo lije ... jay
Dusri aarati deen dayaalaa
Dhuleva nagarmaan jag ajwaalaa... jay
Tisri aarati tribhuvan devaa
Sur nar indra kare tori sevaa... jay
Chauthi aarati chaugati chure Manvanchit fal shivsukh pure... jay
Panchmi aarati punya upaayaa
Moolchand rikhab gun gaayaa... jay

Son of King Naabhi and Queen Marudevi,
The first aarati is to offer profound respect
To the one for giving us the privilege of being born as humans.

The third aarati is offered to the Lord of the three worlds.
May human beings and heavenly beings serve you.
The fourth aarati is offered to the one who liberates us from the four states of existence.
May all the wishes be fulfilled and eternal bliss be achieved.
