Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
कांहीं जाणों नये पांडुरंगाविण । पाविजेल सीण संदेहानें ॥1॥
भलतिया नावें आळविला पिता । तरि तो जाणता कळवळा ॥ध्रु.॥
अळंकार जातो गौरवितां वाणी । सर्वगात्रा धणी हरिकथा ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे उपज विल्हाळे आवडी । करावा तो घडी घडी लाहो ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
One should know nothing apart from Panduranga. Doubt will only bring suffering. By whatever name you call upon the Father, He, the knowing one, responds with tender care. Adornment flows when the tongue utters praise; Hari-katha is the satiation of every limb. Says Tuka, that love wells up and overflows. Take its profit moment by moment.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
