Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe — Lyrics in English
Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe Kali Aarti
Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe Kali, Jai Durge Khappar Wali।
Tere Hi Gun Gaave Bharti, O Maiya Hum Sab Utaare Aarti॥
॥Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe Kali॥
Tere Bhakt Jano Par Mata, Bheer Padi Hai Bhari।
Danav Dal Par Toot Pado Maa, Karke Sinh Sawari॥
Sau-Sau Sinhon Se Balshali, Hai Das Bhujaon Wali।
Dukhiyon Ke Dukhde Nivarti, O Maiya Hum Sab Utaare Aarti॥
॥Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe Kali॥
Maa Bete Ka Hai Is Jag Mein, Bada Hi Nirmal Naata।
Poot Kapoot Sune Hain Par Na, Mata Suni Kumata॥
Sab Pe Karuna Darshaane Wali, Amrit Barsaane Wali।
Dukhiyon Ke Dukhde Nivarti, O Maiya Hum Sab Utaare Aarti॥
॥Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe Kali॥
Nahi Mangte Dhan Aur Daulat, Na Chandi Na Sona।
Hum To Mange Maa Tere Man Mein, Chhota Sa Ek Kona॥
Sabki Bigdi Banane Wali, Laaj Bachane Wali।
Satiyon Ke Sat Ko Sambhalti, O Maiya Hum Sab Utaare Aarti॥
॥Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe Kali॥
Charan Sharan Mein Khade Tumhari, Le Puja Ki Thali।
Vrad Hasth Sar Par Rakh Do, Maa Sankat Harne Wali॥
Maa Bhar Do Bhakti Ras Pyali, Asht Bhujauo Wali।
Bhakto Ke Karaj Tu Hi Sarti, O Maiya Hum Sab Utaare Aarti॥
॥Ambe Tu Hai Jagdambe Kali॥
