History

It may have been inspired by the Dashavatara (Sanskrit: दशावतारकीर्तिधवलम्) section of Gita Govinda of Jayadeva, a lyrical composition of 12th century, which has the same refrain:[1]

प्रलयपयोधिजले धृतवानसि वेदम् ॥
विहितवहित्रचरित्रमखेदम्॥
केशवाधृतमीनशरीर जयजगदीशहरे॥

There are also variants of the song, using the same tune and structure, but with focus on different deities. These include Om Jai Lakshmi Mata, Om Jai Shiva Omkara and Om Jai Shiva Shakti Hare.
