An arti is a devotional song sung generally, at the conclusion of puja rituals. Artis set a divine aura where every devotee's heart is drenched into the religious fervor. Through these artis we sing in praise of the almighty and ask for his blessings to be bestowed upon us. The melodious tunes and the rhythmic pattern make us lose ourselves in the ocean of serenity and happiness that is peculiar to the experience of offering prayers to God. They enable us to sense the balmy feeling, which comes only after meditating for a certain period of times.
Following is a Jai Lakshmi Arti that describes the glorious persona of Goddess Lakshmi and asks her to shower wealth and prosperity on us. Lakshmi Pujan is incomplete without performing this arti along with moving the puja thali in a clockwise manner.

Jai Lakshmi Arti
Jai lakshmi maataa, maiyaa jai lakshmi maataa
tumko nishadin dhyaavata, hara vishnu vidhaataa
brahmaani, rudraani, kamlaa, tu hi hai jaga maataa
surya chandramaa dhyaavata, naarada rishi gaataa
durgaa rupaa nirantara, sukha sampati daataa
jo koi tumko dhyaavata, riddhi siddhi dhana paataa
tu hi hai paatala basanti, tu hi shubha daataa
karma prabhaava prakaashaka, jaganidhi ke traataa
jis ghara mein tum rahati, saba sadaguna aataa
kara sake koii kara le, mana nahin ghabaraataa
tuma bina yagya na hove, vastra na koii paataa
khaana paana ka vaibhava, sab tumse hi aataa
shubha guna mandira sundara, kshirodadhi jaataa
ratana chaturdasha tuma hi, koii nahin paataa
aartii lakshmii ji ki, jo koii nar gaataa
ura aananda umanga ati, paap utar jaataa
