आरती प्रारम्भ (Aarti Commencement)
Original
जय परम तत्त्व, जय निर्गुण ब्रह्म । जय निराकार, जय सर्वव्यापक ॥ जय सत्-चित्-आनन्द, जय अद्वैत स्वरूप । जय अनन्त, जय अव्यय, जय परमात्मा ॥

Jaya parama tattva, jaya nirguna brahma । jaya nirakara, jaya sarvavyapaka ॥ jaya sat-chit-ananda, jaya advaita svarupa । jaya ananta, jaya avyaya, jaya paramatma ॥
Meaning / Translation
Victory to the Ultimate Reality, Victory to the Attributeless Brahman. Victory to the Formless, Victory to the All-Pervading. Victory to Existence-Consciousness-Bliss, Victory to the Non-Dual Form. Victory to the Infinite, Victory to the Imperishable, Victory to the Supreme Self.
प्रथम पद (First Stanza)
Original
न रूप न रेखा, न वर्ण न नाम । न इन्द्रिय गोचर, न मन की गति ॥ वेदान्त वाक्ये, नेति नेति कहत । तत् त्वम् असि, सोऽहम् अस्मि परम ॥
Transliteration
Na rupa na rekha, na varna na nama । na indriya gochara, na mana ki gati ॥ vedanta vakye, neti neti kahat । tat tvam asi, so'ham asmi parama ॥
Meaning / Translation
No form, no outline, no color, no name. Not accessible to senses, not reachable by mind. The Vedanta declares 'Not this, not this.' Thou Art That, I am That Supreme.
द्वितीय पद (Second Stanza)
Original
सब में वही, वही सब में बसा । कण-कण में व्याप्त, घट-घट में वास ॥ दूर नहिं पास नहिं, अभेद अभिन्न । ज्योति स्वरूप, ज्ञान अनन्त अखण्ड ॥
Transliteration
Saba men wahi, wahi saba men basa । kana-kana men vyapta, ghata-ghata men vasa ॥ dura nahin pasa nahin, abheda abhinna । jyoti svarupa, jnana ananta akhanda ॥
Meaning / Translation
He is in all, and all abide in Him. Pervading every particle, dwelling in every heart. Neither far nor near, non-different, indivisible. Of the nature of Light, Infinite Undivided Knowledge.
तृतीय पद (Third Stanza)
Original
माया बन्धन, छूटे जब ज्ञान । द्वैत मिटे, रहे केवल ब्रह्म ज्ञान ॥ गुरु कृपा ते, आत्मा पहचाने । मुक्ति पावे, जन्म-मरण मिट जाये ॥
Transliteration
Maya bandhana, chhute jaba jnana । dvaita mite, rahe kevala brahma jnana ॥ guru kripa te, atma pahachane । mukti pave, janma-marana mit jaye ॥
Meaning / Translation
The bondage of Maya breaks when Knowledge dawns. Duality vanishes, only Brahman-Knowledge remains. By Guru's grace, the Self is recognized. Liberation is attained, the cycle of birth and death ends.

यः पठेत् परम तत्त्व आरतीम् । श्रद्धया भक्त्या च नित्यं नरः ॥ स ब्रह्मभूयाय कल्पते । नात्र संशयः, शिवोऽहम् शिवोऽहम् ॥ ॐ तत् सत् । श्री गुरुभ्यो नमः ॥

Yah pathet parama tattva artim । shraddhaya bhaktya ca nityam narah ॥ sa brahmabhuyaya kalpate । naatra samshayah, shivo'ham shivo'ham ॥ Om tat sat । Shri gurubhyo namah ॥
Meaning / Translation
Whoever recites this Ultimate Reality Aarti daily with faith and devotion becomes one with Brahman — there is no doubt. I am Shiva, I am Shiva. Om, That is Truth. Salutations to the Guru lineage.
