This is a Guru Bhajan, that I learnt to sing for this year's Guru Poornima Bhajans. It takes a little more effort to find the comfort zone for the high notes at Sai Shankara Daya Karo and He Madananthaka Dhaya Karo. But, it is a beautiful bhajan that is worth the extra effort.
Lyrics:
Guru Deva Priya Deva Sai Deva Dhaya Maya
Guru Deva Priya Deva Sai Deva Dhaya Maya
Vibhuthi Sundara Shashanka Shekara
Vibhuthi Sundara Shashanka Shekara
Sai Shankara Dhaya Karo
Sai Shankara Dhaya Karo
Guru Deva Priya Deva Sai Deva Dhaya Maya
Gokula Nandhana Sai Gopala
Gokula Nandhana Sai Gopala
Raghukula Bhushana Sai Rama
Raghukula Bhushana Sai Rama
He Madananthaka Dhaya Karo
He Madananthaka Dhaya Karo
(Fast)
Guru Deva Priya Deva Sai Deva Dhaya Maya
Vibhuthi Sundara Shashanka Shekara
Sai Shankara Dhaya Karo
Sai Shankara Dhaya Karo
Guru Deva Priya Deva Sai Deva Dhaya Maya
Gokula Nandhana Sai Gopala
Raghukula Bhushana Sai Rama
He Madananthaka Dhaya Karo
He Madananthaka Dhaya Karo
(Slow Chorus)
Guru Deva Priya Deva Sai Deva Dhaya Maya

Srikari Kripakari, Kshemankari Saishwari
SaiRam
This is one of my favorites among Devi bhajans. I have been singing this song for years now, however, I don't remember the first time I heard this song.
Whenever I sang this song, one of my friends used to tease me that, this song makes him very hungry as it keeps reminding him of Curries "Shri-Curry, Kripa-Curry,.. ". Just a funny anecdote - No offense meant.
Lyrics:
Sreekari Kripakari, Kshemankari Saishwari
Sreekari Kripakari, Kshemankari Saishwari
Shankari Abhayankari, Shubhankari Saishwari
Shankari Abhayankari, Shubhankari Saishwari
Sreekari Kripakari, Kshemankari Saishwari
Sreekari Kripakari, Kshemankari Saishwari
Thandava Keli Priyakari, Bhairavi Pralayankari
Thandava Keli Priyakari, Bhairavi Pralayankari
Sarveshwari Sundari Daya Kari Maheshwari
Sarveshwari Sundari Daya Kari Maheshwari

Ganga Jata Dhara Gauri Shankara
SaiRam
Sorry about not updating the blog with any new posts from past few days. Everyone at home, fell sick and suffered a bout of cold and cough. Though, I recovered from it, my voice still sounds very hoarse. Kindly bear with me.
This is among the very early bhajans that I learnt almost 14 years ago. It is a lovely song that I fell in love the first time I heard in the Sai baba movie. Enjoy this in SPB's melodious voice.

Ganga Jata Dhara Gauri Shankara Girija Mana Ramana
(Hara)Ganga Jata Dhara Gauri Shankara Girija Mana Ramana
Mrityumjaya Mahadeva Maheshwara Mangala Shubha Charana

Nandi Vahana Naga Bhushana
Nandi Vahana Naga Bhushana
Nirupama Guna Sadana

Natana Manohara Neela Kanta Sai
Niraja Dala Nayana

(Slow Chorus)
Ganga Jata Dhara Gauri Shankara Girija Mana Ramana
Translation:
Glory to the One who bears river Ganges in His hair; Glory to the One who is the husband of Parvati; Glory to the One who is beyond death; Glory to the One whose Feet spell good for every one; Glory to the One who rides the Nandi. Glory to the One who has a cobra around His neck. Glory to the one who is the embodiment of unparalleled virtues; Hail the enchanting dancer, the blue throated Sai, Whose eyes are like the petals of a Lotus flower.

Govinda Krishna Jai Gopala Krishna Jai
SaiRam. #Krishna, #Bhajan, #DevotionalSong, #GovindaKrishnaJai
This is a Krishna Bhajan. It is a very fast and peppy song. There are some tips, at the end, to use while practicing this song.
Though, I believe in 'God is one, Names are many'; there was a stage (very early in my life) when I was into Rama, and not a big fan of Krishna :) . And then, my kid came along - I have been in love with Krishna ever since. His feet reminded me of Mukunda, and I used to sing lot of Krishna songs and lullabies to him as a baby. He is growing up to be a Krishna fan too. He has to have his favorite Krishna's picture near his bed, before going to sleep. And whenever we are picking out pictures or photos at a temple, he will always reach out to a Krishna's picture. :)
Tips: There are two lines that are tricky - of course, the "Gopika mala Hari pyaari".. It is a tongue twister kinda, so practicing that line a lot and staying focused helps. The next tricky one is " Krishna Jai Rama Krishna Jai Radha Krishna Jai Bala Krishna" - see if you can remember that sequence is Rama, Radha and Bala.. usually, I get confused with the order. Or you can always write it down and use it as a reference.
Lyrics:
Govinda Krishna Jai, Gopala Krishna Jai, Gopala Bala Bala Radha Krishna Jai
Govinda Krishna Jai, Gopala Krishna Jai, Gopala Bala Bala Radha Krishna Jai
Krishna Jai, Krishna Jai, Krishna Jai, Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Jai
Krishna Jai, Krishna Jai, Krishna Jai, Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Jai
Gopika Mala Hari Pyari, Mayi Mira Mana Vihari, Madana Mohana Murali Dhari Krishna Jai
Gopika Mala Hari Pyari, Mayi Mira Mana Vihari, Madana Mohana Murali Dhari Krishna Jai
Krishna Jai Krishna Jai Krishna Jai, Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Jai
Krishna Jai Rama Krishna Jai Radha Krishna Jai Bala, Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Jai
(Fast)
Govinda Krishna Jai, Gopala Krishna Jai, Gopala Bala Bala Radha Krishna Jai
Krishna Jai, Krishna Jai, Krishna Jai, Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Jai
Gopika Mala Hari Pyari, Mayi Mira Mana Vihari, Madana Mohana Murali Dhari Krishna Jai
Gopika Mala Hari Pyari, Mayi Mira Mana Vihari, Madana Mohana Murali Dhari Krishna Jai
Krishna Jai Krishna Jai Krishna Jai, Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Jai
Krishna Jai Rama Krishna Jai Radha Krishna Jai Bala, Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Jai
(Slow Chorus)
Govinda Krishna Jai Gopala Krishna Jai
Translation:
Victory to Lord Krishna, Gopala.
Victory to the Lord of the cowherds and the Lord of Radha.
Victory to Lord Krishna, Who wears garlands offered by the gopis (devotees)
and Who is the Indweller in the heart of Mira (devotee).
Victory to the enchanting flute-player, Lord Krishna.
Victory to Thee, Oh Lord Krishna!
