Stotra Path (स्तोत्र पाठ)

॥ श्री गंगा आरती ॥

ॐ जय गंगे माता, मैया जय गंगे माता।

जो नर तुमको ध्याता, मनवांछित फल पाता॥

ॐ जय गंगे माता॥

चन्द्र सी झलकत धारा, निर्मल जल अति पावन।

एक डुबकी जो लागे, मिट जात पापताप मन॥

ॐ जय गंगे माता॥

राजा भगीरथ जब तप कीन्हा, तब पतितन हित आई।

शिव की जटा से निकली, पतितन को तारन आई॥

ॐ जय गंगे माता॥

ब्रह्मलोक से उतरी, गंगा तट बहती।

तीन लोक में व्यापी, महिमा सब कहती॥

ॐ जय गंगे माता॥

विष्णु चरणन से निकली, गंगा अमृत धारा।

शंकर जटा में बसती, सृष्टि का आधारा॥

ॐ जय गंगे माता॥

हरिद्वार में आरती, देख सबका मन हर्षाता।

बनारस काशी में, घाट घाट दीप जलाता॥

ॐ जय गंगे माता॥
