Dedicated toRadha Raniआरती श्री वृषभानुसुता की,मंजुल मूर्ति मोहन ममता की ॥
त्रिविध तापयुत संसृति नाशिनि,विमल विवेक विराग विकासिनि।पावन प्रभु पद प्रीति प्रकाशिनि,सुन्दरतम छवि सुन्दरता की ॥
मुनि मन मोहन मोहन मोहनि,मधुर मनोहर मूरति सोहनि।अविरल प्रेम अमिय रस दोहनि,प्रिय अति सदा सखी ललिता की ॥
संतत सेव्य सत मुनि जन की,आकर अमित दिव्य गुन गन की।आकर्षिणी कृष्ण तन मन की,अति अमूल्य सम्पति समता की ॥
कृष्णात्मिका कृष्ण सहचारिणि,चिन्मय वृन्दा विपिन विहारिणि।जगज्जननि जग दुःख निवारिणि,आदि अनादि शक्ति विभुता की ॥

What does Aarti Shri Vrishabhanusuta Ki mean?
Unlike the household aartis in plain Hindi, this one is written in dense alliterative Braj — nearly every line runs on a single repeated consonant, so that it sounds almost like a chant before it is understood as a sentence. Its theology is compact: Radha is not simply Krishna's beloved but krishnatmika, of his own nature, and mohan mohani, the one who enchants the enchanter. That inversion, placed at the centre of the aarti, is the whole Braj devotional position in two words.
