refrain
ॐ जय यमुना माता हरि जय यमुना माता
Om jaya Yamuna Mata Hari jaya Yamuna Mata
Om, victory to Mother Yamuna; Hari, victory to Mother Yamuna
जो नहावे फल पावे सुख दुःख की दाता
Jo nahave phal pave sukh duhkh ki data
whoever bathes in you gains the reward; you are the giver in joy and sorrow
ॐ जय यमुना माता
Om jaya Yamuna Mata
Om, victory to Mother Yamuna
verse 1
पावन श्री यमुना जल अगम बहै धारा
Pavan Shri Yamuna jal agam bahai dhara
the holy Yamuna's water flows in a deep, boundless stream
जो जन शरण में आता कर देती निस्तारा
Jo jan sharan mein ata kar deti nistara
whoever comes to your refuge, you grant them deliverance
refrain
ॐ जय यमुना माता
Om jaya Yamuna Mata
Om, victory to Mother Yamuna
verse 2
जो जन प्रातः ही उठकर नित्य स्नान करे
Jo jan pratah hi uthkar nitya snaan kare
whoever rises at dawn and bathes daily
यम की त्रास न पावे जो नित्य ध्यान करे
Yam ki tras na pave jo nitya dhyan kare
suffers no fear of Yama, if they meditate on you daily
refrain
ॐ जय यमुना माता
Om jaya Yamuna Mata
Om, victory to Mother Yamuna
verse 3
कलिकाल में महिमा तुम्हारी अटल रही
Kalikal mein mahima tumhari atal rahi
in the age of Kali your glory has stood unshaken
तुम्हारा बड़ा महातम चारों वेद कही
Tumhara bada mahatam charon ved kahi
your great glory the four Vedas have proclaimed
refrain
ॐ जय यमुना माता
Om jaya Yamuna Mata
Om, victory to Mother Yamuna
verse 4
आन तुम्हारे माता प्रभु अवतार लियो
An tumhare Mata Prabhu avatar liyo
coming to you, Mother, the Lord took his incarnation
नित्य निर्मल जल पीकर कंस को मार दियो
Nitya nirmal jal pikar Kans ko maar diyo
drinking your ever-pure water, he slew Kansa
refrain
ॐ जय यमुना माता
Om jaya Yamuna Mata
Om, victory to Mother Yamuna
verse 5
नमो मात भय हरणी शुभ मंगल करणी
Namo Mat bhay harani shubh mangal karani
salutations, Mother, remover of fear, doer of auspicious good
मन बेचैन भया है तुम बिन वैतरणी
Man bechain bhaya hai tum bin vaitarani
my mind is restless; without you, crossing over is like the Vaitarani
refrain
ॐ जय यमुना माता
Om jaya Yamuna Mata
Om, victory to Mother Yamuna
verse 6
यमुना जी की आरती जो प्रेम सहित गावे
Yamuna ji ki aarti jo prem sahit gave
whoever sings Yamuna ji's aarti with love
बहु धन धान्य भरे घर सुख समृद्धि आवे
Bahu dhan dhanya bhare ghar sukh samridhi ave
their home fills with wealth and grain, and joy and prosperity come
refrain
ॐ जय यमुना माता
Om jaya Yamuna Mata
Om, victory to Mother Yamuna
