Lyrics – Sone Ki Chadi (Ajitnath Bhagwan)
Shree Ajitnath Bhagwan
Sone ki chhadi
Roope ki mashaal
Jariyan ka jaama
Motiyan ki maala
Aaju se baaju se nigaah rakho
Jeevdaya pratipaalak
Tran lok na naath
Devadhidev
Taranga teerth mandan
Vijayadevi na nandan
Raja Jitshatru na sapoot
Raaj Rajeshwar
Daya na saagar
Karuna na bhandaar
Anant upkaari
Bija teerthankar
Shree Ajitnath dada ne
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
श्री अजितनाथ भगवान
सोने की छड़ी
रूपे की मशाल
जरीयन का जामा
मोतीयन की माला
आजू से बाजू से निगाह रखो
जीवदया प्रतिपालक
त्रण लोक ना नाथ
देवाधिदेव
तारंगा तीर्थ मंडन
विजयादेवी ना नंदन
राजा जितशत्रु ना सपूत
राज राजेश्वर
दया ना सागर
करुणा ना भंडार
अनंत उपकारी
बीजा तीर्थंकर
श्री अजितनाथ दादा ने
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
શ્રી અજિતનાથ ભગવાન
સોને કી છડી
રૂપે કી મશાલ
જરીયન કા જામા
મોતીયન કી માલા
આજુ સે બાજુ સે નિગાહ રખો
જીવદયા પ્રતિપાલક
ત્રણ લોક ના નાથ
દેવાધિદેવ
તારંગા તીર્થ મંડન
વિજયાદેવી ના નંદન
રાજા જિતશત્રુ ના સપૂત
રાજ રાજેશ્વર
દયા ના સાગર
કરુણા ના ભંડાર
અનંત ઉપકારી
બીજા તીર્થંકર
શ્રી અજિતનાથ દાદા ને
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!

Who is Shri Ajitnath Bhagwan?
Bhagwan Ajitnath is the second Tirthankar of the current time-cycle. He was the son of King Jitashatru and Queen Vijaya (Vijayadevi), and was born in Ayodhya. His emblem (lanchhan) is the elephant, and he attained moksha at Sammet Shikhar (Shikharji).
One of his most revered shrines is the Taranga Tirth in the Mehsana district of Gujarat, where a majestic marble idol of Ajitnath is enshrined in the great temple built by King Kumarpal — which is why this jaykar hails Him as "Taranga Teerth Mandan", the adornment of Taranga.
