Shirdi Sai ! naiya meri, Ab tum paar laga do.------A poetic prayer to Baba.

[Guest guest]

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

A devotee being frustrated from the adverse situations

of life expresses his sentiments before Baba as in following poem saying that

his desires & wishes are

not being fulfilled and also the destiny is not changing.

So he has come at doors of Sai Baba as a Sudama,

who approached to Lord Krishna at the time of urgent need & crisis in Dwapar age.

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

Hasrat aur tamanna meri,

Roti aur bilkhati hai.

Na jane kya hua hai Sai,

Kishmat na badkati hai.

Dekho dwaar khara Sudama,

Man me aas lagaye.

Aayenge Sai Man-Mohan,

Dukh-daridra bhagaye.

Meri peerha koyi na jane,

Kaise haal hai mere.

Dukh-vipada ke beech bhi dekho,

Geet ga rahe tere.

Sai mere barhe dayalu,

Dukh-peerha sab har lo.

Udaseen hu baitha kabse,

Apni baho me le lo.

Shirdi Sai ! naiya meri,

Ab tum paar laga do.

Soyi hai meri jo kishmat,

Usko aaj jaga do.

Translation

========

=My desires & wishes are weeping & wailing today.

O Sai ! i d'nt know what happened that my fate is not

changing.

=See, Sudama is standing at doors having a great hope

that Sai Man-Mohan will come forward to remove the

sufferings & poverty.

=Nobody understands my pains & knows what is my

condiotion.Look, even amidst sorrow & grief i am

singing your songs.

=Sai is very compassionate.Pl remove all my sufferings

& pains.Since when i am sitting dull & inactive.Pl take

me between your arms(Pl embrace me).

=O Shirdi Sai ! now take out my boat (across the river

of sorrows & sufferings) and awaken (arouse) to my

sleeping destiny.
