श्री विठ्ठल · Marathi आरती
येई हो विठ्ठले माझे माऊली ये
येई हो विठ्ठले माझे माऊली ये ।
निढळावरी कर ठेवुनि वाट मी पाहे ॥ धृ ॥
आलिया गेलिया हाती धाडी निरोप ।
पंढरपूरी आहे माझा मायबाप ॥ १ ॥
पिवळा पीतांबर कैसा गगनी झळकला ।
गरुडांवरि बैसोनि माझा कैवारी आला ॥ २ ॥
विठोबाचे राज्य आम्हां नित्य दिपवाळी ।
विष्णुदास नामा जीवेभावे ओंवाळी ॥ ३ ॥

What the aarti says, in simple English.
Come, O Vitthala, my mother, come – I wait for you with my hand shading my brow. I send messages with everyone who comes and goes: my mother and father live in Pandharpur. How your yellow silk shines in the sky! My protector has come riding on Garuda. In Vithoba's kingdom every day is Diwali for us – Vishnudas Nama waves the lamp before him with all his heart.
