Pehle Sai ke charno mein, apna sheesh nivauo maiy,
Kaise Shirdi Sai aaye, saara haal sunau maiy. 1
Kaun hai mata, pita kaun hai, yeh na kisi ne bhi jaana,
Kaha janam Sai ne dhara, prashan paheli raha bana. 2
Koee kahe Ayodhya ke, yeh Ramchandra bhagvan hain,
Koee kehta Saibaba, pavan putra Hanuman hain. 3
Koee kehta mangal murti, Shri Gajanan hain Sai,
Koee kehta Gokul-Mohan Devki Nandan hain Sai. 4
Shanker samajh bhakt kaee to, baba ko bhajhte rahte,
Koee kahe avtar datt ka, pooja Sai
ki karte. 5
Kuch bhi mano unko tum,
pur sai hain sachche bhagvan,
Bade dayalu deen-bandhu, kitno ko diya jivan-daan. 6
Kaee varsh pehle ki ghatna, tumhe sunaunga mein baat,
Keesy bhagyashaali ki Shirdi mein aaee thi barat. 7
Aaya saath usi ke tha, baalak aik bahut sunder,
Aaya aaker vahin
bus gaya, paavan Shirdi kiya nagar. 8
Kaee dino tak raha bhatakta, bhiksha maangi usne dar dar,
Aur dikhaee aisee leela, jug mein jo ho gaee amar. 9
Jaise-jaise umar badi, badti hee vaisy gaee shaan,
Ghar ghar hone laga nagar mein, Sai baba kaa gungaan. 10
Digdigant mein laga goonjane, phir to Saiji ka naam,
Deen-dhukhi ki raksha karna, yahi raha baba ka kaam. 11
Baba ke charno mein ja kar, jo kehta mein hoo nirdhan,
Daya usee par hoti unkee, khul jaate dhukh ke bandhan. 12
Kabhi kisee ne maangi bhiksha, do baba mujhko suntaan,
Aivom astoo tub kaihkar Sai de te thay usko vardaan. 13
Swayam dhukhi baba ho jaate, deen-dukhijan ka lukh haal,
Anteh: karan bhi Sai ka, sagar jaisa raha vishal. 14
Bhakt ek madrasi aaya, ghar ka bahut bada dhanvaan,
Maal khajana behadh uskaa, keval nahi rahi suntaan. 15
Laga manane Sainath ko, baba mujh per daya karo,
Junjha se junkrit naiya ko, tum hee mairee par karo. 16
Kuldeepak ke bina andhera, chchaya hua ghar mein mere,
Isee liye aaya hoon baba, hokar sharnagat tere. 17
Kuldeepak ke abhav mein, vyarth hai daulat ki maya,
Aaj bhikhari ban kar baba, sharan tumhari mein aaya, 18
De de mujhko putra-daan, mein rini rahoonga jivan bhar,
Aur kisi ki aas na mujko, siraf bharosa hai tum per. 19
Anunaye-vinaye bahut ki usne, charano mein dhar ke sheesh,
Tub prasana hokar baba ne, diya bhakta ko yeh aashish. 20
‘Allah bhala karega tera,' putra janam ho tere ghar,
Kripa rahegi tum per uski, aur tere uss balak per. 21
Ab tak nahi kisi ne paya, sai ki kripa ka paar,
Putra ratan de madrasi ko, dhanya kiya uska sansaar. 22
Tan-man se jo bhaje usi ka jug mein hota hai uddhar,
Sanch ko aanch nahi haiy koee, sada jooth ki hoti haar. 23
Mein hoon sada sahare uske, sada rahoonga uska daas,
Sai jaisa prabhu mila haiy, itni ki kum haiy kya aas. 24
Mera bhi din tha ik aisa, milti nahi mujhe thi roti,
Tan per kapda duur raha tha, sheish rahi nanhi si langoti, 25
Sarita sammukh hone per bhi mein pyasa ka pyasa tha,
Durdin mera mere ooper, davagani barsata tha. 26
Dharti ke atirikt jagat mein, mera kuch avalumbh na tha,
Bana bhikhari maiy duniya mein, dar dar thokar khata tha. 27
Aise mein ik mitra mila jo, param bhakt Sai ka tha,
Janjalon se mukt, magar iss, jagti mein veh bhi mujh sa tha. 28
Baba ke darshan ke khatir, mil dono ne kiya vichaar,
Sai jaise daya murti ke darshan ko ho gaiye taiyar. 29
Paavan Shirdi nagari mein ja kar, dhekhi matvaali murti,
Dhanya janam ho gaya ki humne jab dhekhi Sai ki surti. 30
Jabse kiye hai darshan humne, dukh sara kaphur ho gaya,
Sankat saare mite aur vipdaon ka ant ho gaya. 31
Maan aur sammaan mila, bhiksha mein humko baba se,
Prati bambit ho uthe jagat mein, hum Sai ki abha se. 32
Baba ne sammaan diya haiy, maan diya is jivan mein,
Iska hee sambal le mein, hasta jaunga jivan mein. 33
Sai ki leela ka mere, mun par aisa assar hua,
Lagta, jagti ke kan-kan mein, jaise ho veh bhara hua. 34
'Kashiram' baba ka bhakt, iss Shirdi mein rehta tha,
Maiy Sai ka Sai mera, veh duniya se kehta tha. 35
Seekar svayam vastra bechta, gram nagar bazaro mein,
Jhankrit uski hridh-tantri thi, Sai ki jhankaron se. 36
Stabdh nisha thi, thay soye, rajni aanchal me chand sitare,
Nahi soojhta raha hath ka, hath timiri ke mare. 37
Vastra bech kar lote raha tha, hai! Haath se 'kaashi',
Vichitr bada sanyoga ki uss din aata tha veh akaki. 38
Gher raah mein khare ho gaye, usse kutil, anyaayi,
Maaro kaato looto iski, hee dhvani pari sunaee. 39
Loot peet kar usse vahan se, kutil gaye champat ho,
Aaghaton se marmahat ho, usne di thi sangya kho. 40
Bahut der tak para raha veh, vahin usi halat mein,
Jaane kab kuch hosh ho utha, usko kisi palak mein. 41
Anjane hee uske muh se, nikal para tha Sai,
Jiski prati dhvani Shirdi mein, baba ko parri sunai. 42
Shubdh utha ho manas unka, baba gaye vikal ho,
Lagta jaise ghatna sari, ghati unhi ke sunmukh ho. 43
Unmadi se idhar udhar tab, baba lage bhatakne,
Sunmukh chizein jo bhi aiee, unkoo lage patkne. 44
Aur dhadhakte angaro mein, baba ne kar dala,
Huye sashankit sabhi vaha, lakh tandav nritya nirala. 45
Samajh gaye sab log ki koi, bhakt para sankat mein,
Shubit khare thai sabhi vaha par, pare huye vismaiye mein. 46
Usse bachane ke hi khatir, baba aaj vikal hai,
Uski hi piraa se pirit, unka ant sthal hai. 47
Itne me hi vidhi ne apni, vichitrata dhikhlayi,
Lukh kar jisko janta ko, shradha sarita lehrayee. 48
Lekar sanghya heen bhakt ko, gaari ek vaha aayee,
Sunmukh apne dekh bhakt ko, Sai ki aankhe bhar aayee. 49
Shant, dheer, gambhir sindhu sa, baba ka anthsthal,
Aaj na jane kyon reh-rehkar, ho jaata tha chanchal. 50
Aaj daya ki murti svayum tha bana hua upchaari,
Aur bhakt ke liye aaj tha, dev bana prati haari. 51
Aaj bhakti ki vishum pariksha mein, safal hua tha Kaashi,
Uske hee darshan ki khatir, thai umre nagar-nivasi. 52
Jab bhi aur jahan bhi koyee, bhakt pare sankat mein,
Uski raksha karne baba jate hai pulbhur mein. 53
Yug yug ka hai satya yeh, nahi koi nayee kahani,
Aapat grast bhakt jab hota, jate khudh antar yami. 54
Bhedh bhaav se pare pujari manavta ke thai sai,
Jitne pyare Hindu-Muslim uutne hi Sikh Isai. 55
Bhed bhaav mandir masjid ka tor phor baba ne dala,
Ram rahim sabhi unke thai, Krishan Karim Allah Tala. 56
Ghante ki pratidhvani se gunja, masjid ka
kona kona,
Mile paraspar Hindu Muslim, pyar bada din din doona. 57
Chamatkar tha kitna sundar, parichaye iss kaya ne dee,
Aur neem karvahat mein bhi mithaas baba ne bhar dee. 58
Sabko sneha diya Sai ne, sabko suntul pyar kiya,
Jo kuch jisne bhi chaha, baba ne usko vahi diya. 59
Aise snehsheel bhajan ka, naam sada jo japa kare,
Parvat jaisa dhukh na kyoon ho, palbhar mein veh door tare. 60
Sai jaisa daata humne, aare nahi dekha koi,
Jiske keval darshan se hee, saari vipda door gayee. 61
Tan mein Sai, man mein Sai, Sai bhajha karo,
Apne tan ki sudh budh khokur, sudh uski tum kiya karo. 62
Jab tu apni sudh tajkur, baba ki sudh kiya karega,
Aur raat din baba, baba, baba hi tu rata karega. 63
To baba ko aare! vivash ho, sudh teri leni hee hogi,
Teri har icha baba ko, puree hee karni hogi. 64
Jungal jungal bhatak na pagal, aur dhundne baba ko,
Ek jagah keval Shirdi mein, tu paiga baba ko. 65
Dhanya jagat mein prani hai veh, jisne baba ko paya,
Dukh mein sukh mein prahar aath ho, sai ka hee gune gaya. 66
Gire sankat ke parvat, chahe bijli hi toot pare,
Sai ka le naam sada tum, sunmukh sub ke raho arre. 67
Iss budhe ki sunn karamat, tum ho jaoge hairaan,
Dang reh sunkar jisko, jane kitne chatur sujaan. 68
Ek baar Shirdi mein sadhu dhongi tha koi aaya,
Bholi bhali nagar nivasi janta ko tha bharmaya. 69
Jari, butiyan unhe dhikha kar, karne laga vaha bhashan,
Kehne laga sunno shrotagan, ghar mera hai vrindavan. 70
Aushadhi mere paas ek hai, aur ajab iss mein shakti,
Iske sevan karne se hi, ho jaati dukh se mukti. 71
Aggar mukta hona chaho tum, sankat se bimari se,
To hai mera numra nivaidan, har nar se har nari se, 72
Lo kharid tum isko, sevan vidhiyan hai nyari,
Yadyapi tuch vastu hai yeh, gun uske hai atisheh bhari. 73
Jo hai suntaan heen yeh yadi, meri aushdhi ko khaye,
Putra ratan ho parapat, aare aur veh mooh manga phal paye. 74
Aushadh meri jo na kharide, jeevan bhar pachtayega,
Mujh jaisa prani shayad hi, aare yaha aa payega. 75
Duniya do din ka mela hai, mauj shaunk tum bhi kar lo,
Gar is se milta hai, sub kuch, tum bhi isko le lo. 76
Hairani barti janta ki, lakh iski kaarastaani,
Pramudit veh bhi man hi man tha, lakh logo ki nadani. 77
Khabar suna ne baba ko yeh, gaya daud kar sevak ek,
Sun kar bhukuti tani aur, vismaran ho gaya sabhi vivek. 78
Hukum diya sevak ko, satvar pakar dusht ko lao,
Ya Shirdi ki seema se, kapti ko duur bhagao. 79
Mere rehte bholi bhali, shirdi ki janta ko,
Kaun neech aisa jo, sahas karta hai chalne ko. 80
Pulbhur mai hi aise dhongi, kapti neech lootere ko,
Maha naash ke maha gart mein, phahuncha doon jivan bhar ko. 81
Tanik mila aabhaas madari, krur kutil anyayi ko,
Kaal nachta hai ab sir par, gussa aaya Sai ko. 82
Pal bhar mein sab khel bandh kar, bhaga sir par rakh kar pairr,
Socha tha sabh hi ab, bhagvan nahi hai ab khair. 83
Such hai Sai jaisa daani, mil na sakega jag mein,
Ansh iish ka Sai baba, unhe na kuch bhi mushkil jag mein. 84
Sneh, sheel, sojanya, aadi ka abhushan dharan kar,
Badta iss duniya mein jo bhi, manav sevaye path par. 85
Vahi jeet leta hai jagti, ke jan jan ka anthsthal,
Uski ek udasi hi jag ko kar deti hai vrihal. 86
Jab jab jug mein bhar paap ka bar bar ho jaata hai,
Usse mita ne ke hi khatir, avtari ho aata hai. 87
Paap aur anyaya sabhi kuch, iss jagti ka har ke,
Duur bhaga deta duniya ke danav ko shan bhar mein. 88
Sneh sudha ki dhar barasne, lagti hai duniya mein,
Gale paraspar milne lagte, jan jan hai aapas mein. 89
Aisse hee avtari Sai, mrityulok mein aakar,
Samta ka yeh paath paraya, sabko apna aap mitakar. 90
Naam dwarka masjid ka , rakha Shirdi ne,
Haap taap, suntaap mitaya, jo kuch aaya Sai ne. 91
Sada yaad mein mast ram ki, baithe rehte thai Sai,
Peher aath hee naam ram ka, bhajte rehte thai Sai. 92
Sookhee rookhee tazi baasi, chahe ya hovai pakvaan,
Sada pyar ke bhooke Sai ke, khatir thai sabhi samaan. 93
Sneh aur shradha se apni, jan jo kuch de jaate thay,
Bade chaav se uss bhojan ko, baba paavan karte thay. 94
Kabhi kabhi man behlane ko, baba baag mein jate thay,
Pramudit man nirukh prakrati, chatta ko veh hote thay. 95
Rang-birange pushp baag ke manam manam hil dul karke,
Beehar birane man mein bhi sneh salil bhar jate thai. 96
Aise su-madhur bela mein bhi, dukh aafat bipda kai maare,
Apne man ki vyatha sunane, jan rehte baba ko ghere. 97
Sunkar jinki karun katha ko, nayan kamal bhar aate thay,
De vibhuti har vyatha, shanti, unke uur mein bhar dete thay. 98
Jaane kya adhbut, shakti, uuss vibhuti mein hoti thi,
Jo dharan karke mastak par, dukh saara har leti thi. 99
Dhanya manuj veh sakshaat darshan, jo baba Sai ke paye,
Dhanya kamal kar unke jinse, charan kamal veh parsai. 100
Kaash nirbhaiy tumko bhi, saakshat Sai mil jaata,
Varshon se ujra chaman apna, phir se aaj khil-jata. 101
Gar pakar mein charan shri ke, nahi chorta umar bhar,
Mana leta mein jaroor unko gar rooth te Sai mujh par!! 102
