In the following poem offered to Sai Baba,

a devotee is calling to Sai Baba to come to

show him the light at the time of darkest

period of his life and he further praises the

glory of "Dwarikamayi" where Baba used

to live during His life time :---

***************************

Shirdi waale Sai baba !

Barhi der huyi ab aa jaana.

Hai raat bari yeh andhiyaari,

Tum ujiyaala ban aa jaana.

Shirdi waale Sai --------------

Kahi aandhi hai kahi tufa hai,

Kahi khandak hai kahi hai khaayi,

Pag -pag par to badhaaye hai,

Tum raah dikhaane aa jaana.

Shirdi waale Sai --------------

"Dwarikamayi" ke dwaare,

Kaisa hazum yeh hai chhaya.

Koyi naache koyi gaaye,

Kya mast yeh aalam chhaya hai.

Shirdi waale Sai------------

Tu Garib-nawaaj hai kahlaata,

Tujhko bhajte hai sab Sai.

Mai bhi tera ek sewak hu,

Yadi yaad aaye to aa jaana.

Shirdi waale Sai------------

Kahi khushi ka aalam hai chhaya,

Kahi gam ki raat sataati hai.

Sukh-dukh ki bhul-bhulaiya me,

Tum hame hasaane aa jaana.

Shirdi waale Sai --------------

Translation

========

=O Sai Baba of Shirdi ! too much time has passed.

This night is full of complete darkness.Pl appear

yourself as a torch (the soucre of light).

=Some where there is wind -blow, some where the

storm.Some where there is a ditch & some where

the trench.There are barriers on every inch of path.

So come to show me the way.

=On the door of "Dwarikamayi", how this crowd (the assembly of devotees) has

assembled there.Some body is dancing.Some one is singing.What an atmosphere

of thrill & joy is prevailing there.

=O Sai ! you are called as "Garib-nawaaj"( the saviour

of poors) and every one worships you.I am also one of your servant.If you

happen to remember me, then

must come.

=Some where there prevails an atmosphere of happiness.Some where the night of

grief & sorrow

pinches us.Among the delusion of happiness &

sorrow.Pl come to make us please & happy.
