Mantra, Kirtan And Stotra: Sanskrit Chants

Vani Devi sings the Devi Arati. You can find it in Yoga Vidya Kirtan booklet under the number 314 . Devi Arati, beginning with Maiya Jaya Mangala Murati, is a wonderful hymn for the worship of the Divine Mother, Amba Gauri, the radiant Divine Mother. This song is typically sung at the Arati, i.e. at the light ceremony for Durga, Kali, Devi, Lakshmi, Saraswati or Parvati. But you can also sing the song like a kirtan, like a bhajan just like that. Sing along and let your heart be touched. Here is the text to sing along: Devi Ar(a)ti Maiya Jay(a) Mangala-murati, Maiya Jay(a) Ananda-karani Tumako Nishi-dina Dhyavata, Tumako Nishi-dina Dhyavata Hari Brahma Shiva Ri, Om Jay Ambe Gauri // 1 // Manga Sindura Virajata, Tiko Nriga-mada Ko, Maiya Tiko Nriga-mada Ko Ujjvala Se Dou Naina, Ujjvala Se Dou Naina, Chandra-vadana Niko, Om Jay Ambe Gauri // 2 // Kanaka-samana Kalevara, Raktambara Raje, Maiya Raktambara Raje Rakta-pushpa-vana-mala, Rakta-pushpa-vana-mala Kanthana Para Saje, Om Jay Ambe Gauri // 3 // Kehari-
