Aarti Collection in Hindi with Meaning

Browse Hindi Aartis with Devanagari text, Roman transliteration, available English meanings, auto-scroll, and page-level source or scope notes.

An Aarti is a sung devotional offering commonly accompanied by a lamp. Text, refrain, order, and performance customs vary, so Valkala records reading versions rather than calling one form universal.

Which Aarti to sing

An Aarti is usually sung at the close of puja for the deity you have worshipped: Om Jai Jagdish Hare for Vishnu or as a general Aarti, Jai Ganesh Deva for Ganesha, Om Jai Lakshmi Mata for Lakshmi, Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe for Durga and Om Jai Shiv Omkara for Shiva. Many families sing the Ganesha Aarti first and then the Aarti of the main deity.

Words, refrains and versions

Aartis are sung more than read, so lines, refrains and closing verses vary between households and recordings. Each page here gives one complete reading version with transliteration and meaning, and its source card notes the edition and any lines that circulate differently. For how the thali is moved and why water is sprinkled afterwards, read the Aarti vidhi guide.

Suggested starting points

Verification note: Each source card records the edition, meaningful variants, and verification work. Incomplete devotional texts are not published as reader pages.
