Jay Adhya Shakti is one of the most popular and widely sung Aartis in Hinduism, particularly in the state of Gujarat and among devotees of Shakti (the Divine Mother). It praises the Goddess as the primordial energy (Adhya Shakti) that creates, sustains, and transforms the universe. The lyrics describe her various forms, her powers, and the devotion of her followers.
The original text is written in Gujarati. Below is the transliteration in the Roman script (IAST style modified for readability) followed by a poetic English translation.
Original: Jai Adhya Shakti, Jai Adhya Shakti, Jai Adhya Shakti Mata.
English: Victory to the Primeval Power! Victory to the Primeval Power! Victory to you, Mother Adhya Shakti.
Original: Tum Srishti Ki Janani, Palan Haru Vishwa Ki, Har Le Har Kasht Hamara.
English: You are the Mother of this creation and the nurturer of the entire universe. Please remove every single one of my sufferings.
Here’s an English translation and brief, interesting report on the Jay Adhya Shakti Aarti.
Original: Trishul, Damru, Khadag Sohe, Var-Mudra haath
Translation: The trident (Trishul), the small drum (Damru), and the sword (Khadag) adorn you; you also hold the boon-giving gesture (Var Mudra) in your hand.
Original: Divya Sinhasan Virjat, Bhaktan ke saath
Translation: You shine magnificently on your divine throne, always alongside your devotees.
Unlike Western concepts where "gods" are distinct, this Aarti explicitly states that Saraswati, Lakshmi, Durga, and Kali are not separate entities. They are Swaroop Tumhara (your own forms). When a devotee sings this, they are acknowledging that knowledge, wealth, power, and death are different faces of one single cosmic reality.
