My SAI is Here

How wonderful to walk on smooth,

And shining steps towards my Lord,

But when resentment rears its head,

Insistent ego clouds my view,

And rocks and boulders strew the path,

Then Baba, it's so hard to do.

I beg you, Swami hear my prayer,

Dissolve the mists - make straight the way,

And let me now, become aware,

Of your sweet presence in my heart,

Then let the music in the hills,

Burst forth triumphant, loud and clear,

Why fear what ere tomorrow brings,

My dearest Lord - my SAI is here.
