📜 Lyrics – Sone Ki Chadi (Vasupujya Swami)
Shree Vasupujyaswami 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
Champapuri teerth mandan
Jayavatidevi na nandan
Raja Vasupujyana sapoot
Raaj Rajeshwar
Daya na saagar
Karuna na bhandaar
Anant upkaari
Baarma teerthankar
Shree Vasupujyaswami dada ne
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
श्री वासुपूज्यस्वामी 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
चम्पापुरी तीर्थ मंडन
जयावतीदेवी ना नंदन
राजा वसुपूज्यना सपूत
राज राजेश्वर
दया ना सागर
करुणा ना भंडार
अनंत उपकारी
बारमा तीर्थंकर
श्री वासुपूज्यस्वामी दादा ने
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
શ્રી વાસુપૂજ્યસ્વામી 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
ચમ્પાપુરી તીર્થ મંડન
જયાવતીદેવી ના નંદન
રાજા વસુપૂજ્યના સપૂત
રાજ રાજેશ્વર
દયા ના સાગર
કરુણા ના ભંડાર
અનંત ઉપકારી
બારમા તીર્થંકર
શ્રી વાસુપૂજ્યસ્વામી દાદા ને
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
