॥ माँ अन्नपूर्णा जी की आरती ॥
Chorus / टेक
जय अन्नपूर्णे माता, जय अन्नपूर्णे माता। काशी पुरी निवासिनी, जग की सुख-दाता॥
॥ 1 ॥
सोने का थाल सजाकर, अन्न भर-भर लाती। भूखे जन को तृप्त करे, माँ मुस्काती जाती॥ जय अन्नपूर्णे माता, जय अन्नपूर्णे माता। काशी पुरी निवासिनी, जग की सुख-दाता॥
॥ 2 ॥
शिव की झोली भर दी माँ ने, भर दी प्रेम से। शंकर भी भिक्षा माँगें, काशी के क्षेम से॥ जय अन्नपूर्णे माता, जय अन्नपूर्णे माता। काशी पुरी निवासिनी, जग की सुख-दाता॥
॥ 3 ॥
त्रिभुवन की पालनहारी, रसोई सँभाले। भक्तों के घर में सदा, अन्न-धन उजाले॥ जय अन्नपूर्णे माता, जय अन्नपूर्णे माता। काशी पुरी निवासिनी, जग की सुख-दाता॥
Frequently Asked Questions
Q.Why did Lord Shiva himself beg from Goddess Annapurna?
In a philosophical debate, Shiva declared the material world — including food — to be an illusion (maya). Annapurna, as a form of Shakti, withdrew all nourishment from the universe to prove that the material world is real and necessary. A humbled Shiva came to Kashi with his begging bowl, acknowledging that sustenance is as sacred as liberation.
Q.Can Annapurna Aarti be sung before every meal?
Yes, singing or reciting Annapurna Aarti before meals is a revered practice. It cultivates gratitude, transforms eating into a sacred act, and invokes the goddess's blessings for nourishment and abundance.
