Supersonic singing!

Posted on May 12th, 2009 by Lisaji : stagemanager at the house of theory Lisaji
Returning to an old favorite. This is one of those beautiful devotional songs that really has the ability to kick in.
The verses I've bolded are supersonic! If you're not feeling that, your doing something wrong! Enjoy ................................

Mere Guru Dev
                                                                            *

Mere Gurudev, charanon par sumana shraddha ke arpita hai
Tere hee dena hai jo hai. Wahi tujha ko samarapita hai

My Gurudev I offer these flowers of my faith at your feet
Whatever I have, you have given to me, and I dedicate it all to you.

Na priti hai pratiti hai, na hi puja ki shakti hai
Meraa yaha man, meraa yaha tan, meraa kan kan samarapita hai

I have no love, nor do I know you. I don't even have the strength to worship you, But this mind of mine, this body of mine, my every atom is dedicated to you.

Tuma hee ho bhaava men mere, vicharon mein, pukaron mein.
Banaale yantra ab mujhko mere saravatra samarapita hai

You are the only one in my heart and my thoughts.
You are the one who I call out to.
Now Make me your instrument - all I am I offer to you.

Dusting down the forehead

Posted on May 26th, 2009 by Lisaji : stagemanager at the house of theory Lisaji

Coming from noon-day rest on Vulture's Peak,
I saw an elephant, his bathing done,
Forth from the river issue. And a man,
Taking his goad, bade the great creature stretch
His foot: 'Give me thy foot.' The elephant
Obeyed, and to his neck the driver sprang.
I saw the untamed tamed, I saw him bent
To his master's will: and marking inwardly
I passed into the forest depths, and there
I' faith I trained and ordered all my heart.

                                                 Theragatha, Psalm 32, Paili Canon
