Stanza 7 of Om Jai Jagdish Hare
Vishay Vikar Mitao, Paap Haro Deva विषय-विकार मिटाओ, पाप हरो देवा।
Swami Paap Haro Deva स्वामी पाप हरो देवा।
Shraddha Bhakti Badhao, Santan Ki Seva श्रद्धा-भक्ति बढ़ाओ, संतन की सेवा॥
Meaning
Wipe away my craving for sense-pleasures and the mind's distortions; take away my sins, O God. Increase my faith and devotion, and my love of serving the saints.
Why this verse matters
Tradition sees "Shraddha" here as the poet's gentle signature, since his name was Shardha (Shraddha) Ram. Many families add a closing couplet, "Tan man dhan sab kuchh hai tera, tera tujhko arpan, kya laage mera", which is a later addition and not part of Phillauri's text. Some prints also add a "Kahat Shivanand Swami" stanza borrowed from the Shiva aarti.
