ॐ जय लक्ष्मी माता, मैया जय लक्ष्मी माता । तुमको निशिदिन सेवत, हरि विष्णु विधाता ॥ ॐ जय लक्ष्मी माता ॥

om jai lakshmi mata, maiya jai lakshmi mata tumako nishidina sevata, hari vishnu vidhata

oṃ jai lakṣmī mātā, maiyā jai lakṣmī mātā tumako niśidina sevata, hari viṣṇu vidhātā

Om, victory to Mother Lakshmi! Day and night Hari, Vishnu and Brahma the creator serve you.

Verse 1

उमा रमा ब्रह्माणी, तुम ही जग-माता । सूर्य-चन्द्रमा ध्यावत, नारद ऋषि गाता ॥ ॐ जय… ॥

uma rama brahmani, tuma hi jaga-mata surya-candrama dhyavata, narada rishi gata

umā ramā brahmāṇī, tuma hī jaga-mātā sūrya-candramā dhyāvata, nārada ṛṣi gātā

As Uma, Rama and Brahmani, you alone are the world's mother; sun and moon meditate on you, and sage Narada sings your praise.

Verse 2

दुर्गा रूप निरंजनी, सुख सम्पत्ति दाता । जो कोई तुमको ध्यावत, ऋद्धि-सिद्धि धन पाता ॥ ॐ जय… ॥

durga rupa niranjani, sukha sampatti data jo koi tumako dhyavata, riddhi-siddhi dhana pata

durgā rūpa nirañjanī, sukha sampatti dātā jo koī tumako dhyāvata, ṛddhi-siddhi dhana pātā

In Durga's form, the stainless one, giver of happiness and wealth; whoever meditates on you gains abundance, attainment and riches.

Verse 3

तुम पाताल-निवासिनी, तुम ही शुभदाता । कर्म-प्रभाव-प्रकाशिनी, भवनिधि की त्राता ॥ ॐ जय… ॥

tuma patala-nivasini, tuma hi shubhadata karma-prabhava-prakashini, bhavanidhi ki trata

tuma pātāla-nivāsinī, tuma hī śubhadātā karma-prabhāva-prakāśinī, bhavanidhi kī trātā

You dwell even in the netherworld, you alone are the giver of good; you bring the fruits of karma to light and carry us across the ocean of existence.

Verse 4

जिस घर में तुम रहती, सब सद्गुण आता । सब सम्भव हो जाता, मन नहीं घबराता ॥ ॐ जय… ॥

jisa ghara mem tuma rahati, saba sadguna ata saba sambhava ho jata, mana nahim ghabarata

jisa ghara meṃ tuma rahatī, saba sadguṇa ātā saba sambhava ho jātā, mana nahīṃ ghabarātā

In the home where you dwell, all virtues gather; everything becomes possible, and the heart knows no fear.

Verse 5

तुम बिन यज्ञ न होते, वस्त्र न कोई पाता । खान-पान का वैभव, सब तुमसे आता ॥ ॐ जय… ॥

tuma bina yajna na hote, vastra na koi pata khana-pana ka vaibhava, saba tumase ata

tuma bina yajña na hote, vastra na koī pātā khāna-pāna kā vaibhava, saba tumase ātā

Without you no yajna is performed, no one receives clothing; the abundance of food and drink — all comes from you.

Verse 6

शुभ-गुण मन्दिर सुन्दर, क्षीरोदधि-जाता । रत्न चतुर्दश तुम बिन, कोई नहीं पाता ॥ ॐ जय… ॥

shubha-guna mandira sundara, kshirodadhi-jata ratna caturdasha tuma bina, koi nahim pata

śubha-guṇa mandira sundara, kṣīrodadhi-jātā ratna caturdaśa tuma bina, koī nahīṃ pātā

Beautiful temple of auspicious virtues, born of the ocean of milk; without you none could obtain the fourteen jewels of the churning.

Verse 7

महालक्ष्मीजी की आरती, जो कोई नर गाता । उर आनन्द समाता, पाप उतर जाता ॥ ॐ जय… ॥

mahalakshmiji ki arati, jo koi nara gata ura ananda samata, papa utara jata

mahālakṣmījī kī āratī, jo koī nara gātā ura ānanda samātā, pāpa utara jātā

Whoever sings this aarti of Mahalakshmi finds joy filling the heart and faults falling away.

When it is recited: Sung at Lakshmi Puja on Diwali, on Fridays, Sharad Purnima, and in daily worship for the household's prosperity.

Traditional significance: The aarti recalls that all attainment — wealth, wisdom, even the yogic goal — flows through the Mother's grace, and that she dwells where there is purity, light and generosity.

Questions

When is the Lakshmi aarti sung?

Most famously at Lakshmi Puja on Diwali night, and regularly on Fridays and at Sharad Purnima — always with a lit lamp, for Lakshmi is welcomed by light.
