For the nine nights of Navaratri we sing Matajis aarti the lyrics of which are below. This aarti sings the praises of Goddess Paravati who takes the form of Mataji during this period. Many Gujaratis sing this aarti during Navratri as each verse describes a different form of the Goddess, Her different names and tells us of Her story.
Navratri means nav - nine and ratri - nights. The nine nights of worship can be divided into three sections which are dedicated to the three Goddesses and their various forms:
The first three days are to Durga Maa, the Goddess of Shakti, asking her to remove all negativity from our lives.
The middle three to Lakshmi Maa, the Goddess of Wealth which includes spiritual wealth. We ask her to fill our mind with positive thoughts.
The last three to Sarasvati Maa, the Goddess of Knowledge, we ask for knowledge of the truth and for spiritual knowledge which can guide all our actions and lead us on the right path.

This is a great version of the Mataji aarti - Jaya Adya Shakti that you can use to sing along to as it also has the words for you to follow in English and Gujarati. The above version is sung by Gujaratis in the UK but I have noticed that there are a few different versions of this aarti with the final few verses differing. At my local community (Lohana Centre South Harrow) they don't sing a verse which I have put in brackets.
