Om Jai Shiv Omkara — Lyrics in English with Meaning

Om jai shiv onkara, swami jai shiv onkara ।
Brahma, vishnu, sadashiv, arddhangi dhara ॥

ॐ जय शिव ओंकारा, स्वामी जय शिव ओंकारा। ब्रह्मा, विष्णु, सदाशिव, अर्द्धांगी धारा॥

Victory to you, Shiva, embodiment of Om! You are Brahma, Vishnu and Sadashiv, and Parvati is your other half.

Ekanan chaturanan panchanan raje ।
Hansasan garurasan vrishavahan saje ॥

एकानन चतुरानन पञ्चानन राजे। हंसासन गरूड़ासन वृषवाहन साजे॥

You shine as the one-faced, four-faced and five-faced Lord, riding the swan, the eagle Garuda and the bull Nandi.

Do bhuj char chaturbhuj dasbhuj ati sohe ।
Trigun rup nirkhate tribhuvan jan mohe ॥

दो भुज चार चतुर्भुज दसभुज अति सोहे। त्रिगुण रूप निरखते त्रिभुवन जन मोहे॥

Your two-armed, four-armed and ten-armed forms are radiant; seeing your form of the three qualities, all three worlds are enchanted.

Akshamala vanmala mundamala dhari ।
Tripurari kansari kar mala dhari ॥

अक्षमाला वनमाला मुण्डमाला धारी। त्रिपुरारी कंसारी कर माला धारी॥

You wear a rudraksha rosary, a garland of forest flowers and a garland of skulls; destroyer of Tripura and of Kansa, you hold a rosary in your hand.

Shvetambar pitambar baghambar ange ।
Sanakadik garunadik bhutadik sange ॥

श्वेताम्बर पीताम्बर बाघम्बर अंगे। सनकादिक गरुणादिक भूतादिक संगे॥

You wear white, yellow and tiger-skin garments, accompanied by Sanak and the sages, by Garuda and the celestials, and by your band of spirits.

Kar ke madhya kamandalu chakra trishuldhari ।
Sukhkari dukhhari jagapalan kari ॥

कर के मध्य कमण्डलु चक्र त्रिशूलधारी। सुखकारी दुखहारी जगपालन कारी॥

In your hands are the water-pot, the discus and the trident; you bring joy, remove sorrow and sustain the world.

Brahma vishnu sadashiv janat aviveka ।
Pranavakshar men shobhit ye tinon eka ॥

ब्रह्मा विष्णु सदाशिव जानत अविवेका। प्रणवाक्षर में शोभित ये तीनों एका॥

Only the unwise see Brahma, Vishnu and Sadashiv as separate — in the sacred syllable Om all three are one.

Lakshmi va savitri parvati sanga ।
Parvati arddhangi, shivalhari ganga ॥

लक्ष्मी व सावित्री पार्वती संगा। पार्वती अर्द्धांगी, शिवलहरी गंगा॥

With you are Lakshmi, Savitri and Parvati; Parvati is your other half, and the Ganga flows as your wave.

Parvat sohain parvati, shankar kailasa ।
Bhang dhatur ka bhojan, bhasmi men vasa ॥

पर्वत सोहैं पार्वती, शंकर कैलासा। भांग धतूर का भोजन, भस्मी में वासा॥

Parvati lives on the mountain and Shankar on Kailash; bhang and datura are your food and you dwell in sacred ash.

Jata men gang bahat hai, gal mundan mala ।
Shesh nag lipatavat, orhat mrigchhala ॥

जटा में गंग बहत है, गल मुण्डन माला। शेष नाग लिपटावत, ओढ़त मृगछाला॥

The Ganga flows in your matted hair, a garland of skulls hangs at your neck, the serpent Shesh coils around you and you wear a deer skin.

Kashi men viraje vishvanath, nandi brahmachari ।
Nit uth darshan pavat, mahima ati bhari ॥

काशी में विराजे विश्वनाथ, नंदी ब्रह्मचारी। नित उठ दर्शन पावत, महिमा अति भारी॥

In Kashi you reign as Vishwanath, with Nandi the celibate; those who rise each day for your darshan know how great your glory is.

Trigunaswami ji ki arti jo koi nar gave ।
Kahat shivanand swami, sukh sanpatti pave ॥

त्रिगुणस्वामी जी की आरती जो कोइ नर गावे। कहत शिवानन्द स्वामी, सुख संपत्ति पावे॥

Says Swami Shivanand: whoever sings this aarti of the Lord of the three qualities gains happiness and prosperity.
