Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
समर्थाचें बाळ कीविलवाणें दिसे । तरी कोणा हांसे जन देवा ॥1॥
अवगुणी जरी जालें तें वोंगळ । करावा सांभाळ लागे त्याचा ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे तैसा मी एक पतित । परि मुद्रांकित जालों तुझा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Even if the child of the Capable One looks pitiful, who would dare to mock it? Even if the child is full of faults and unclean, it must still be cared for and protected. Says Tuka, in the same way I am a fallen one, yet I am stamped with Your seal.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
