Vinodavisya posakam manobhilasapurakam
I
salute Sai Sankara, adorned with majestic hair, who grants His

and fulfillment of our aspirations is a play.

noble feelings like kindness.

I salute the effulgent Lord Sai who grants us courage with an
upraised hand, who is the mountain of beneficent influence, who

favorable situations, and who is the very embodiment of all
noble feelings and attributes. O Sai, You are the sole purifier
of all and the source of my inner strength.

by the sacred ash, who is the master on vina (musical instrument)
and protector of all, and who is Raghava, the embodiment of
dharma and the Lord of all angels and sages.

worthy of adoration by the three worlds, and protector of

everyone, and leads us to the path of eternal peace, and whose
face shines with great effulgence.

Sadavidhata bhagyatam tvameva sai sundaram
O, beautiful Lord Sai, the bestower of all prosperity, You were
the great and virtuous Rhagava, and ever blissful Madhava; but
now You embody the one God. I meditate on You, the Lord of
Parthi and Shirdi.
