Jai Guru Deva Om

I like this song a lot, and the version of Fiona Apple...

Acorss The Universe

Words are flowing out
Like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe

Pools of sorrow waves of joy
Are drifting through my open mind
Possessing and caressing me

Jai Guru Deva, om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light
Which dance before me like a million eyes
They call me on and on across the universe

Thoughts meander like a restless wind
Inside a letter box
They tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe

Jai Guru Deva, om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter shades of earth
Are ringing through my open views
Inciting and inviting me

Limitless undying love
Which shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe

Jai Guru Deva, om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva

Like the title. Do you know the meaning?

[Jaydee]

@abhijit

Jai translates to praise or honor.
Guru translates to teacher.
Deva translates to Godess.

Deva in 'Across the Universe' ends in A in this song. Actual translation is femine. (i.e. Goddess)
Goddess is the Divine Mother of the Universe (hence Across the Universe)

Om of course is the sound of the universe resonating all around us.

Jai Guru DevA Om
Nothing's gonna change my world.

OMG Jaydee....this was the first song I learned on the guitar - the Fiona Apple version. :) fantastic interpretation of the theme :) -stacy

[Jaydee]

@guaranteed hi Stacy, thanks ! , theres this another version by SELWAY feat. MORPHO EUGENIA, Electronic Version //// is pretty cool..... and you have to check the album : "Beetles Regrooved" .... its awesome! ♥♥♥

[Abhijit]

@gavincci well done :) except that Deva is god, not goddess. Goddess is Devi or Devi Ma :)
Literal translation of this is a salutation to a teacher, not a god. As per this you are putting your teacher ahead of God.
Om as you already know is the universal endless sound. It also is the symbol for lord Shiva :)

[guaranteed]

@gavincci definitely :)
