📜 Lyrics – Sone Ki Chadi (Sheetalnath Bhagwan)
Shree Sheetalnath 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
Bhadilpur teerth mandan
Sunanda Devi na nandan
Raja Drudhrath na sapoot
Raaj Rajeshwar
Daya na saagar
Karuna na bhandaar
Shrivatsa lanchhan
Dasma teerthankar
Shree Sheetalnath dada ne
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
श्री शीतलनाथ 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
भदिलपुर तीर्थ मंडन
सुनंदा देवी ना नंदन
राजा दृढरथ ना सपूत
राज राजेश्वर
दया ना सागर
करुणा ना भंडार
श्रीवत्स लंछन
दसमा तीर्थंकर
श्री शीतलनाथ दादा ने
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
શ્રી શીતલનાથ 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
ભદિલપુર તીર્થ મંડન
સુનંદા દેવી ના નંદન
રાજા દૃઢરથ ના સપૂત
રાજ રાજેશ્વર
દયા ના સાગર
કરુણા ના ભંડાર
શ્રીવત્સ લંછન
દસમા તીર્થંકર
શ્રી શીતલનાથ દાદા ને
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
