Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
तूं पांढरा स्पटिक मणी । करिसी आणिकां त्याहुनि ॥1॥
ह्मणोनि तुझ्या दारा । न येत ठकती दातारा ॥ध्रु.॥
तुझी ठावी नांदनूक । अवघा बुडविला लोक ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे ज्याचें घेसी । त्यास हें चि दाखविसी ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
You are a white crystal, and You make others even more so than Yourself. That is why those who do not come to Your door are the ones who are cheated, O Generous One. Your way of dwelling is well known: You have submerged the entire world. Says Tuka, whoever You take something from, You show them exactly this.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
