Sawayya

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Sawaiya

The English spelling can vary - Sometimes written as "Sawaiye" or "Savaiye" , etc

These are thirty-three in all. Apart from describing the form of the Khalsa, these describe God in a style very similar to that employed in the Akal Ustat. God as described here is above the limiting descriptions of the Vedas and the puranas. He is Omniscient, Omnipotent, the Sublime, The Transcendent, the Supreme Being. He is the Creator, Without hate, Without fear, Beyond time, Not incarnated, Self-existent, the Enlightener. He always takes care of his followers. In these compositions, the false hoods of people who masquerade as saints have been exposed.


Listen to the Sawaiya being lovingly sung here :
