Sant Ravidas Aarti Lyrics
नामु तेरो आरती भजनु मुरारे,हरि के नाम बिनु झूठे सगल पसारे।
नाम तेरा आसनो नाम तेरा उरसा,नामु तेरा केसरो ले छिटकारो।
नाम तेरा अंभुला नाम तेरा चंदनोघसि,जपे नाम ले तुझहि कउ चारे।
नाम तेरा दीवा नाम तेरो बाती,नाम तेरो तेल ले माहि पसारे।
नाम तेरे की ज्योति जगाई,भइलो उजिआरो भवन सगलारे।
नाम तेरो तागा नाम फूल माला,भार अठारह सगल जूठारे।
तेरो कियो तुझ ही किया अरपउ,नाम तेरो तुही चंवर ढोलारे।
दस अठा अठसठे चारे खानी,इहै वरतणि है सगल संसारे।
कहै 'रविदास' नाम तेरो आरती,सतिनाम है हरिभोग तुम्हारे।
Namu Tero Aarti Bhajanu Murare,Hari Ke Nama Binu Jhuthe Sagala Pasare।
Nama Tera Asano Nama Tera Urasa,Namu Tera Kesaro Le Chhitakaro।
Nama Tera Ambhula Nama Tera Chandanoghasi,Jape Nama Le Tujhahi Kau Chare।
Nama Tera Diva Nama Tero Bati,Nama Tero Tela Le Mahi Pasare।
Nama Tere Ki Jyoti Jagai,Bhailo Ujiaro Bhavana Sagalare।
Nama Tero Taga Nama Phula Mala,Bhara Atharaha Sagala Juthare।
Tero Kiyo Tujha Hi Kiya Arapau,Nama Tero Tuhi Chanvara Dholare।
Dasa Atha Athasathe Chare Khani,Ihai Varatani Hai Sagala Sansare।
Kahai 'Ravidasa' Nama Tero Aarti,Satinama Hai Haribhoga Tumhare।
