Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
अनुभवें अनुभव अवघा चि साधिला । तरि िस्थरावला मनु ठायीं ॥1॥
पिटूनियां मुसे आला अळंकार । दग्ध तें असार होऊनियां ॥ध्रु.॥
तुका ह्मणे आह्मी जिंकिला संसार । होऊनि किंकर विठोबाचे ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Through experience upon experience, everything has been accomplished. Then the mind grew still, settled in its place. Hammered in the crucible, the ornament emerges; what was dross has been burned away. Says Tuka, we have conquered this world of becoming by becoming servants of Vithoba.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
