Guest guest Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Awwww...my husband used to sing that song to me when we were dating! Thanks for reminding me of it.

I remember coming home after school and hearing "I'm a believer", "Last train to Clarksville", "Daydream Believer", and all those Monkees songs on 1050-CHUM (Toronto's once-legendary Top 40 blowtorch) as a single-digit age kid, circa 1966-67!! > > I often hear pop songs and think of our Amma! > Isn't there a song "Help me Amma" to the tune of the Beach Boys' "Help me Rhonda"??

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 That is so sweet! Your husband must have been very inspired! I'd love to see a booklet of love songs to Amma based on pop songs. That way all us Americans would know the tune.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 (sung to the tune of "Peaceful Easy Feeling" by the Eagles) I like the way Your sparkling nosering lays Against Your skin so brown And I want to pray to You in the darshan line With Your devotees all around 'Cause I get a blissful, easy feeling I feel Your love all around And I'm already resting In Your arms And I found out a long time ago What Maya can do to your soul Oh, but now Amma's in my heart She brings me joy and makes me whole 'Cause I get a sleepy, drowsy feeling And I've been up for so long Doing seva, singing bhajans All night long It's 6 A.M. at Devi Bhava And Amma's still going strong Should I get a big strong cup of java? Or just snooze in the darshan hall? And I get a blissful, easy feeling And I know You won't let me down Cause I feel that Your sweet love Is all around On 8/16/05, Ardis Jackson <ardis1 wrote: > > I Love It!
