तुलसी माता · Marathi आरती
जय देवी जय देवी जय माये तुळशी (मराठी तुळशी आरती)
जय देवी जय देवी जय तुळसी ।
निजपत्राहुनि लघुतर त्रिभुवन हे तुळिसी ॥ धृ ॥
ब्रह्मा केवळ मुळीं मध्यें तो शौरी ।
अग्रीं शंकर तीर्थें शाखा परिवारीं ।
सेवा करिती भावें सकळहि नरनारी ।
दर्शनमात्रें पापें हरती निर्धारीं ॥ १ ॥
शीतळ छाया भूतळव्यापक तूं कैसी ।
मंजिरीची बहु आवड कमळारमणासी ।
तव दलविरहित विष्णू राहे उपवासी ।
विशेष महिमा तुझा शुभ कार्तिकमासीं ॥ २ ॥
अच्युत माधव केशव पीतांबरधारी ।
तुझिया पूजनकाळीं जो हें उच्चारी ।
त्यासी देसी संतति संपति सुखकारी ।
गोसावीसुत विनवी मजला तूं तारीं ॥ ३ ॥

What the aarti says, in simple English.
Victory to Mother Tulsi – beside a single leaf of yours, the three worlds weigh less. Brahma dwells at your root, Vishnu in your middle and Shankar at your tip, with all the holy places in your branches; men and women serve you with devotion, and a mere sight of you surely removes sin. Your cool shade spreads over the earth; your blossoms are dearly loved by the husband of Lakshmi, and without your leaf Vishnu remains fasting – your glory is greatest in the holy month of Kartik. Whoever calls out 'Achyuta, Madhava, Keshava, Pitambaradhari' while worshipping you, to them you give children, wealth and happiness. Gosavisut prays: carry me across.
