In Praise of Sawan by Sant Kirpal Singh Aja Pyare / 3 Chelo Ni Saiyo Sirsa / 4 Dekha Hai Jab Se Hamne / 6 Chapter 9, “Expressing Our Heart in the Bhajans.” The quote on the pocket in back is from Sing the Praises of the Satguru.
Keep in mind that Punjabi and Hindi consonants may stand alone without a vowel - in fact the consonants have an “a” sound built in, therefore words such as “Kabir” and “Satguru” might be sung as “Kabir-a” and “Sat-a-guru.” As Sant Ji has said, the most important thing is that they be sung with love. By listening to the tapes of these bhajans (available from the Sant Bani Tape Service), you will be able to learn them fairly easily. The transliterations aim to represent the actual Punjabi or Hindi words which make up the bhajans - not the sounds of those words when sung. In 2002, previously unpublished bhajans by Sant Ji and other Masters were added to Appendix III. There are three appendices containing recent bhajans by Sant Ji, added in 1988, 1992, and 1996.
approved by Sant Ji for inclusion, and the translations and transliterations have been checked by Raaj Kumar Bagga (“Pappu”). All the songs have been sung at Sant Ji’s ashram in India.
The bhajans included are our attempt at a close approximation of the way they are sung in the U.S. We have changed the indications for lines which are repeated and have eliminated any instructions for the sangat’s responses we recognize and respect the fact that “local versions” are sung differently in many places.
