Questions
Is this the same Om Jai Lakshmi Mata that is sung in Hindi?
Yes. These are the same Hindi words, written in Bengali letters so you can read them aloud. It is a transliteration, not a translation into Bengali. The meaning of each verse is given in English.
How was the Bengali text prepared?
We keep one checked Devanagari edition (Traditional Hindi aarti as printed in popular aarti-sangrah booklets; text cross-checked against Drik Panchang (Hindi), Webdunia Hindi and BhaktiBharat.com) and write it in Bengali letters with fixed spelling rules, so every verse matches the original letter for letter. The English-letter line is the common singing spelling.
