Popular Ganapati Aarti

With the advent of any festival, several music and audio companies come out with a large collection of devotional songs, kathas, aarti, stutis and strotras sung for a particular deity by popular singers. Ganesh Chaturthi is one such festival where there are new devotional songs released every year. These songs are sung by well-known and renouned artists. All the singers do an exceptional job and they are highly promoted. But they add a bit of confusion to their listeners. It is impossible to hear all the songs and chose the best ones.

Many people purchase five to six Cds and get confused as to which one they should play when they perform aarti of Lord Ganesh. People at times feel guiltly and worry over ganapati aarti. They wonder if they have done the rituals correctly especially when Lord Ganesh’s idol is conscreated at home.

To make life easier for devotees during Ganesh Chaturhi here is a list of common Ganesh aarti/ Ganapati Aarti- Jai Ganesh Jai Ganesh Deva, Sukhart Dukharta Varta Vighnachi, Ganesh Gayatri, Ganesh Moola Mantra and there are many more variations to these. Our post on how to perform aarti of Lord Ganesh gives an indepth understanding of what are the things needed to perform an aarti at home and including the words of the well-known aartis so that our readers can sing along.

But of all the aartis that are played during Ganesh Chaturthi, especially at Ganesh pandals, my personal favorite is Shendur lal chadhayo. Here is the video of this aarti.

 

I am sure listening to theses beats most people will start tapping their feet, the youngsters will be dancing and there will be tears in the eyes of the devotees. Devotees get very emotional when they hear the praises of their Lord and that feeling of closeness and meanings of the words in the aarti or strotras fills their heart and soul with overwhelming joy. The only way they know how to express it, is with tears. I am sure the Lord understands what goes in the hearts of such devotees and how much they want to serve Him without asking for anything in return.

To make it easier for our readers we are adding the words of this aarti here so that they can sing along and pronounce the syllables correctly.
