Is He God?

Is He God ... Is He God ... I question myself?

During long hours, as I sit for Sai's Darshan,

He is God ... He is God ... I answer myself,

When Sai stands in full glory granting sambashan and sparshan.

Is He God ... Is He God ... I scream in ego?

When Sai ignores me all the time.

He is God ... He is God ... I sing unto reverberating valleys with echo,

When the Indweller Sai fulfils even my innermost aim.

Is He God ... Is He God ... I exclaim in pain?

When I am swooned in the battle of life.

He is God ... He is God ... I proclaim in gain,

When Almighty Sai protects me from further strife.

Like a frog jumping over stones of doubt and devotion,

With my faith wavering there and here,

Yet He always taps me with a smile of compassion,

And says ... Why fear, when I am near!
