📜 Lyrics – Sone Ki Chadi (Anantnath Bhagwan)
Shree Anantnath 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
Ayodhya nagari naresh
Suyashadevi na nandan
Raja Sinhsen na sapoot
Raaj Rajeshwar
Daya na saagar
Karuna na bhandaar
Anant upkaari
Chaudma teerthankar
Shree Anantnath dada ne
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
Ghani Khamma!
श्री अनंतनाथ 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
अयोध्या नगरी नरेश
सुयशादेवी ना नंदन
राजा सिंहसेन ना सपूत
राज राजेश्वर
दया ना सागर
करुणा ना भंडार
अनंत उपकारी
चौदमा तीर्थंकर
श्री अनंतनाथ दादा ने
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
घणी खम्मा!
શ્રી અનંતનાથ 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
અયોધ્યા નગરી નરેશ
સુયશાદેવી ના નંદન
રાજા સિંહસેન ના સપૂત
રાજ રાજેશ્વર
દયા ના સાગર
કરુણા ના ભંડાર
અનંત ઉપકારી
ચૌદમા તીર્થંકર
શ્રી અનંતનાથ દાદા ને
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
ઘણી ખમ્મા!
