29. The Companion of My Solitude
Sai! Today
Neither do I have my mother, nor father
Niether brother, nor wife
If there is any of my own left
It is you and you alone.
When I am sitting alone with a heavy heart
Tormented by my own thoughts
You come to me
And provide me the feeling of your closeness
Fill my heart with the sweetness
Of your abounding affection
And I feel I have no need
To look for any other support.
The mere thought of your proximity
Provides my heart the feeling of celestial bliss
Which drowns in itself
All my sorrows, feelings of loneliness
The infirmitiesof my physical frame
And that that point of time
The sweet feeling of completeness it generates
Is beyond any words to describe.
In those moments of ecstasy
My heart starts vibrating my own words
“Sai you are my very own”
30. The Ignornat ‘I’
Sai!
What an ignorant child am i
Who keeps on searching for you in his own words.
Certainly you must be laughing at my ignorance
But what should I do with these thoughts
Which keep on hovering in my mind
And when fail to find a place within
Start flowing in the form of words
The tongue starts singing
The song of its Sai
But tell me O’Baba!
What else has a man to offer
Except words
Which he can share with others
If those words can provide relief to even one devotee of yours
And if he starts treading the path of Sai bhakti
Even for a few moments
My thoughts have been achieved
Their objective
And provide peace
To my own joyful heart?
O’ Sai! Fill my whole existence
With the fine colours of words
Which I may scatter
And provide relief to the hearts of seekers
So that one day my own self
May fly away assuming various hues
And get lost in the eyes of your devotees.
