The most sacred of all Gods, Lord Rama holds a special place in every Hindu's heart. Read on to know the Shree Ram aarti for your puja.

Shri Ram Aarti

Lord Rama is the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu and had taken birth on earth to put an end to the forces of evil of the age. He is a symbol of chivalry and virtue and in the words of Swami Vivekanada, he is "the embodiment of truth, of morality, the ideal son, the ideal husband, and above all, the ideal king." His exploits form the great Hindu epic of Ramayana, written by the ancient Sanskrit poet Valmiki. He is represented as a standing figure with an arrow in his right hand, a bow in his left and a quiver on his back. He is usually accompanied by his wife Sita, brother Lakshman and the legendary monkey-attendant Hanuman. Adorned with a tilak on the forehead, his dark or almost bluish complexion denotes his affinity with Lord Vishnu.

Lord Rama Aarti
Shri Ram Aarti Shri Ramachandra kripalu bhaju man,
haran bhav bhai darunam.
Nav kanj lochan, kanj mukh,
kar kanj pad kanjarunam Kandarp aganit amit chhavi,
Navvnil jiraj sundaram,
pat pit manahun tadit ruchi,
Suchi naumi Janakasutavaram.
Bhuj din bandu dinesh danav,
dusht dalan nikandanam,
Raghunand anand kand Kaushal,
chandra Dashrath nandanam.
Sir krit kundaltilak charu,
udar ang vibhushanam,
Ajanubhuj san-chap dhar,
sangramajit kharadushanam.
iti badit Tulasidas Shankar,
shesh muni man ranjanam,
Mam hridai kanj nivas kar,
kamadi khal dal bhanjanam.
Manujahi racheu milahi so bar sahaj sundarsanvaro,
Karuna nidhan sujan silu sanehu janat ravaro.
Ehi bhanti Gauri asis suni,
Siya sahit hiya harshin ali,
TuIsi bhavanihin puji-puni mudit man mandir chali.
Jani Gauri anukal,
Siya hiya harshu na jai kahi,
Manjul mangal mul,
bam ang pharkan lage.
