Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram

मराठी मूळ

नव्हें हें गुरुत्व मेघवृिष्ट वाणी । ऐकावी कानीं संतजनीं ॥1॥

देहपिंड दान दिला एकसरें । मुिळचें तें खरें टांकसाळ ॥2॥

तुका ह्मणे झरा लागला नवनीत । सेविलिया हित पोट धाय ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

This is not the ego of a teacher; my words fall like rain, to be heard by the saints. I have offered this body as a gift, all at once. What is original and genuine is the mint itself. Says Tuka, a stream of fresh butter has begun to flow. If you partake of it, the belly is full and satisfied.

We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
