Dekhi jaha pyaar ki murti, Baithe Shirdi Sai.------A poetic expression before Sai Baba.

[Guest guest]

Om Sai Saranam !

=============

A devotee on reaching to doors of Sai Baba,forgot each & every thing being so

vibrated & thrilled internally by having His divine darshan. His eyes were

filled with over-flow of emotions towards his loving Baba.He thus

expresses his sentiments in following poem :----

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

Bahati nadiya dhar tej hai,

Kaise paar mai jaavu.

Charo or andhera chhaya,

Kaise raah mai paavu.

Aasa aur ummid ki dori,

Pakarhe rahna Sai.

Dag-mag hoti meri naiya,

Ghor nirasha chhayi.

Tune diya sahara mujhko,

Hath pakarh hai barhaya.

Esi aas aur vishwas ko lekar,

Mai Shirdi me aaya.

Dekhi jaha pyaar ki murti,

Baithe Shirdi Sai.

Jinhe dekh meri aankhe bhi,

Bhav-vivhal bhar aayi.

Kya mangu kuchh samajh na paya,

Dekh saloni surat.

Kitne pyaare Sai Hamare,

Aur pyaari hai murat.

Meaning

======

=The river is flowing with intense high current.How

should i go across it.All around me there lies darkness,

how should i get the way (path).

=O Sai ! pl keep on holding the string of hope & trust.

My (life)boat is stumbling & a deep desperation is

prevailing all around me.

=You extended me support & carried me forward by

holding my hands.With this feeling of hope & trust,

i have come to Shirdi.

=Where i visualised the idol of love, my Shirdi Sai

being seated there.By having whose glimpse, my eyes

too got filled with over-flow of emotions.

=What to demand from Him, i could not make up my

mind by seeing this beautiful form (of Sai).How lovely

is our Sai & His idol.
