Mother O Mother Sai Maa

SaiRam
This bhajan, Mother O Mother Sai Maa, is an English Bhajan that I frequently sing at our center - It is simple and straightforward, and feels like coming straight from the heart. I love the feeling this bhajan evokes - a sense of gratitude, love towards mother and above all a proximity to our dear Sai, as we see Him as our dear mother.
As always, the lyrics is expanded to show the lines repeating twice during the slow speed and then going once during the fast speed.

Lyrics:
Mother O Mother Sai Maa, you mean the whole world to me, Sai Maa
Mother O Mother Sai Maa, you mean the whole world to me, Sai Maa

(In next line, the tune of Mother o Mother sai maa is slightly different from above; Sai Maa should be prolonged)
Mother O Mother Sai Maaaa, You are the light of my life, Sai Maa
Mother O Mother Sai Maaaa, You are the light of my life, Sai Maa

Maaa Sai Maaa, Maaa Sai Maaa
Maaa Saayee Maaa, Maaa Sai Maaa

In times of darkness and despair, I call your name; you are always there
In times of darkness and despair, I call your name; you are always there

How can I thank you, O dear Sai Maa, for all your patience and love, Sai Maa
How can I thank you, O dear Sai Maa, for all your patience and love, Sai Maa

Maaa Sai Maaa, Maaa Sai Maaa
Maaa Saayee Maaa, Maaa Sai Maaa

(Fast Beat)
Mother O Mother Sai Maa, you mean the whole world to me, Sai Maa
Mother O Mother Sai Maaaa, You are the light of my life, Sai Maa
Maaa Sai Maaa, Maaa Sai Maaa
Maaa Saayee Maaa, Maaa Sai Maaa
In times of darkness and despair, I call your name; you are always there
How can I thank you, O dear Sai Maa, for all your patience and love, Sai Maa
Maaa Sai Maaa, Maaa Sai Maaa
Maaa Saayee Maaa, Maaa Sai Maaa

(Chorus and very slow)
Mother O Mother Sai Maa, you mean the whole world to me, Sai Maa
