Marathi Bhajan

Shirdiche Dwarka Sainath - Marathi Bhajan




Om Sai Ram,

Sai Baba lived in Shirdi in Maharashtra,  and the language he used most of the time with Shirdi was Marathi. Devotional Songs Baba sung and listened to were in Marathi. 
Aartis in Shirdi are sung in this same language.

And it really is pleasant to listen to this Sai Baba bhajan or song in Marathi.

Samadhi Temple Song

Parampita Sai Parmatma - Lyrics - Samadhi Temple Song



These days the Sai Baba song mostly played in Samadhi Temple Shirdi is Param Pita Sai Parmatma.
You can listen online ParamPita Sai Parmatma here on this
 youtube video and sing along with the lyrics, which you'll have to scroll down to read them.

Some of the meanings of the attributions given to Shirdi Sai Baba are given in this post. Although for  some devotees they are not needed. I know devotees of Shirdi Sai Baba who cannot stop tears of joy coming out of their eyes while listening to
 this song. Something touches their heart, something very very own, which they find it very difficult to express or explain. The love of Sai Baba.

This song
 now is not just a regular part of Samadhi Mandir, but also of many bhajan hall. It has become one of the most popular Hindi bhajan of Sai Baba among the devotees on spiritual path who feels His divine presence. As the devotee proceeds for the darshan of Sai Baba in the Samadhi Mandir, this songenters their heart through their ears. Darshan of Sai Baba along with this song is indeed a divine discourse for the soul. 

Talking about bhajans and the
 spiritual ecstasy or fervor, you might check out concerts of Vikram Hazra bhajans. Many people experience this amazing combination of spiritual songs with spiritual and devotional ecstasy while attending Vikram Hazra's concerts of spiritual songs.

Here it would be appropriate to point out that
 Parayan of Shri Sai SatCharitra is also a great way for people on spiritual path, to feel the divine presence of Shirdi Sai Baba and the divine discourse that gently pierce one's heart and soul. Parayans of Sai SatChritra is considered a must for most of Sai devotees. Om Sai.

Sadguru Sainath Maharaj Ki Jai.

I would like to narrate one of the
 stories of ramakrishna paramahamsa here. It is very short, but gives deep insight about a lover of God and divine, and the effect of divine names, songs and texts on them. 
Here it is :


  "Chaitanyadeva set out on a pilgrimage to southern India. One day he saw a man reading the Gita. Another man, seated at a distance, was listening and weeping. His eyes were swimming in tears. Chaitanyadeva asked him, 'Do you understand all this?' The man said, 'No, revered sir, I don't understand a word of the text.' 'Then why are you crying?' asked Chaitanya. The devotee said: 'I see Arjuna's chariot before me. I see Lord Krishna and Arjuna seated in front of it, talking. I see this and I weep.'


This devotional song is a nice soothing song with some of the divine attributes of Shirdi Sai Baba. Meanings of some of the divine attributes below.


Param Pita - means the supreme or absolute Father.
Parmatma - means - Supreme soul or absolute eternal indivisible soul.
Prem ke Sagar means - The Ocean of Love
Aadi ant ke gyataa - The knower of the beginning and the end.
Bhgya Vidhata - The lord of destiny and Providence.
Karmo ki gati jananewala - the knower of mystery of law of karma.
Sab sukho ke daataa - The giver of bliss.
Bhakto ke bhagya vidhata - the provider of the devotees.
Sat Chit Anand - Truth Consciousness and Bliss.
Divya drishti ke vidhata - The one who can give divine eyes or visions.

Om Sai,

Subha Savere Sai Tere

Subha Savere Sai Tere Mandir Main - Sai Song


Om Sai Ram,

Here is a  Shirdi Sai Baba song with good lyrics that reflects a lover of
 Shri Saibaba of Shirdi. Watching this video itself can bring about inner devotional change for a Baba and Shirdi lover. The pictures of Sai Baba's idol in Samadhi Temple and other spiritually important places in Shirdi are shown in the video. Listening online to this Sai Baba song, while watching this video itself will be a very pleasant experience for Sai Baba devotees.

The theme of this song is pretty much same. The devotee asks Baba to perform a miracle that he or she lives in the sacred land Shirdi. In morning he visits Samadhi Mandir daily, and offer the chadar. Sweep clean the sacred place in front of Sai Baba on daily basis. I worship your holy feet every day.

Do something Baba that i never forget the words that fell from your mouth, let them be my guide. Make me able, that i surrender each and every moment of my life to you and your divine love and grace. Each and everything i have is a Yours and i can surrender it all to You.

What do i have within me? It's all yours and i offer everything within me to you. Keep singing your  praise. That is my joy and bliss.



Lyrics of Subah Savere Sai Tere

 Subah savere Sai tere - 2
 Mandir mein nit aau mein
 Koi karishma karde aise - 2
 Shirdi mein bash jau mein
 Subah savere

 Teri samadhi pe phuloki
 Chadar roz chadau mein
 Dwarkamai ke aangan mein
 Zadu roz lagau mein
 Puju charan tumare
 Sai vachan tumare
 Kabhina visharau mein

 Subah savere Sai tere - 2
 Mandir mein nit aau mein

 Mein es jivan ka har ek pal 
 Tujko arpan kar jau
 Jo kuch he sub tune diya he
 Tuj pe samarpan kar jau - 2


 Mera mujme kya he
 Sub teri hi kripa he
 Tere hi gun gan gau mein

 Subah savere Sai tere - 2
 Mandir mein nit aau mein
 Koi karishma kar do aisa - 2
 Shirdi mein bash jau mein

 Subah savere
