Dukha daridrya mitavo , sankat cchaya hari.
Son of wind god , son of Anjana devi , your power is very heavy,
Please cure us of sorrow and poverty , and never allow the shadow of problems.

Devan Sthuthi keenhi , thurthhi chod dhiyo.
During your childhood , you try to eat the Sun,
And devas prayed you and immediately you freed him.

And got the proud Bali killed and your fame spread

Laya Sanjeevan bhooti , dukha sab dhoor kiyo,
The arrow Shakthi fell on Lakshman , and though all people became very sad,

Kahath Indr harshitha man , vaanchitha phal pave.
Any human being who sings the Aarthi of Lord Balaji,
Would be appreciated by Indra and would get his desires fulfilled.
