Jala puja juhgate karo
Mel anadi vinash jala puja phala muja hojo Magu ema prabhu pas
Gnan kalash bhari atma Samata rasa bhara pur
Sri jina ne navaravata karma hoye chaka chura
Jal puja juhgate karo
Mel anadi vinash jal puja phala muja hojo Magu ema prabhu pas
Om Hrim Shri Param Purushaya Parameswaraya Janma Jara Mrutyu Nirvaranaya
Srimate Jinendraya, Jalam Puja Ye Ja Mahe Swahah (Ring thali 27 times)
Sheetal una jehama rahyo
Sheetal prabhu mukha ranga
Atma sheetal karava bhani
Pujo ariha anga.
