Song of the week ending 15, June 2007

Amma ki chaaya mein meraa safar
ye teri kripaa ho meri maa meri maa
kitne paap meine kiye
tune mushkil mein apnaayaa

My journey is under the shade of you, AMMA. This journey needs your grace, AMMA. How many sins I have committed; but still you help me out in tough situtations.

Jalti huin nakali galiyon me
bhatak rahaa thaa meri maa
pyaar ki ek bhoondh ke liye
thadap rahaa thaa jagadambaa

I was wandering in wrong roads burning with fire; I was also shivering to get even a drop of love, O Mother of the world.

Duniyaa ki maayaa saagar me
doob rahaa thaa meri maa
baalon se pakad ke mujhe
kaise bachayaa jagadambaa

I was drowning in the ocean of samsaara and you pulled me out of this by my hair, O Mother of the world

tujhe kyaa de sakoon
tere bhaag kaa paudhaa maa
shabnam bane mere aansoo
tere charon mein arpit maa

What can I give to you, as I am a flower in your garden; love got converted to my tears and I offer everything at your feet, O Mother.

This song is set in painful yet beautiful darbaari kaanada raaga. The song is originally sung superbly by Swami Amritasvaroopananda. Again due to IPR violations cannot upload the mp3 of swamiji singing. Hence have recorded the song in my voice which can be found here. Please bear the noise, disturbance and awful singing as am not a singer.
