📜 Lyrics – Sone Ki Chadi (Mahavir Swami)

Shree Mahavir Swami 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

Shree Trishala Devi nandan
Shree Siddharth kul deepak

Raaj Rajeshwar
Daya na saagar
Karuna na bhandaar
Anant upkaari
24 ma teerthankar
Shree Mahavir Swami dada ne

Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!

श्री महावीर स्वामी भगवान

सोने की छड़ी
रूपे की मशाल
जरीयन का जामा
मोतीयन की माला
आजु से बाजु से निगाह रखो

जीवदया प्रतिपालक
त्रण लोक ना नाथ
देवाधिदेव

श्री त्रिशला देवी नंदन
श्री सिद्धार्थ कुल दीपक

राज राजेश्वर
दया ना सागर
करुणा ना भंडार
अनंत उपकारी
24 मा तीर्थंकर
श्री महावीर स्वामी दादा ने

घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!

શ્રી મહાવીર સ્વામી 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

શ્રી ત્રિશલા દેવી નંદન
શ્રી સિદ્ધાર્થ કુળ દીપક

રાજ રાજેશ્વર
દયા ના સાગર
કરુણા ના ભંડાર
અનંત ઉપકારી
24 મા તીર્થંકર
શ્રી મહાવીર સ્વામી દાદા ને

ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!

👑 Who is Shri Mahavir Swami?

Bhagwan Mahavir (also called Vardhaman) is the twenty-fourth and final Tirthankar of the current time-cycle. He was born in Kshatriyakund (near Vaishali) to King Siddhartha and Queen Trishala, in the Ikshvaku dynasty. He is depicted with a golden complexion, and his emblem (lanchhan) is the lion. He attained moksha at Pavapuri — on the night of Diwali, one of the few Tirthankars who did not attain nirvana on Sammet Shikhar.

Mahavir Swami's teachings — ahimsa, satya, achaurya, brahmacharya and aparigraha — are the living foundation of Jain dharma today. His name "Mahavir" means "the great hero," one who conquered the inner self completely.
