माँ लक्ष्मी · Marathi आरती
जय देवी जय देवी जय महालक्ष्मी (कोल्हापूर अंबाबाई आरती)
जय देवी जय देवी जय महालक्ष्मी।
वससी व्यापकरूपे तू स्थूलसूक्ष्मी॥ जय देवी जय देवी॥
करवीरपुरवासिनी सुरवरमुनिमाता।
पुरहरवरदायिनी मुरहरप्रियकांता।
कमलाकारे जठरी जन्मविला धाता।
सहस्रवदनी भूधर न पुरे गुण गातां॥ जय देवी जय देवी॥
मातुलिंग गदा खेटक रविकिरणी।
झळके हाटकवाटी पीयूषरसपाणी।
माणिकरसना सुरंगवसना मृगनयनी।
शशिकरवदना राजस मदनाची जननी॥ जय देवी जय देवी॥
तारा शक्ति अगम्या शिवभजकां गौरी।
सांख्य म्हणती प्रकृती निर्गुण निर्धारी।
गायत्री निजबीजा निगमागमसारी।
प्रगटे पद्मावती निजधर्माचारी॥ जय देवी जय देवी॥
अमृतभरिते सरिते अघदुरिते वारीं।
मारी दुर्घट असुरां भवदुस्तर तारीं।
वारी मायापटल प्रणमत परिवारी।
हे रूप चिद्रूप दावी निर्धारी॥ जय देवी जय देवी॥
चतुराननें कुश्चित कर्मांच्या ओळी।
लिहिल्या असतील माते माझे निजभाळीं।
पुसोनि चरणातळीं पदसुमनें क्षाळीं।
मुक्तेश्वर नागर क्षीरसागरबाळी॥ जय देवी जय देवी॥

What the aarti says, in simple English.
Victory to you, Goddess Mahalakshmi – you pervade everything, in both the gross and the subtle. You dwell in Karveer (Kolhapur), mother of gods and sages, giver of boons to Shiva and beloved of Vishnu; Brahma was born from the lotus of your womb, and even the thousand-headed Shesh cannot finish singing your virtues. You hold the citron, mace and shield, radiant as the sun; a golden bowl of nectar shines in your hand; you wear a ruby girdle and bright garments, doe-eyed and moon-faced – mother of Kama himself. You are Tara, the unreachable Shakti, Gauri to Shiva's devotees; the Sankhya philosophers call you Prakriti, you are Gayatri, the seed and essence of the Vedas, and you appear as Padmavati to uphold dharma. River full of nectar, wash away sin and sorrow; destroy the fearsome demons and carry us across the ocean of worldly life; lift the veil of Maya from those who bow to you and show us your form of pure consciousness. Whatever crooked lines of karma Brahma may have written on my forehead, O Mother, wipe them away with the sole of your foot and wash them with the flowers at your feet – so prays Mukteshwar to the daughter of the Ocean of Milk.
Aartis are sung with small differences from region to region and family to family – if your family sings it differently, both are right.
