Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
वाराणसीपयपत असों सुखरूप । सांगावा निरोप संतांसी हा ॥1॥
येथूनियां आह्मां जाणें निजधामा । सवें असे आह्मां गरुड हा ॥2॥
कृपा असों द्यावी मज दीनावरी । जातोंसों माहेरी तुका ह्मणे ॥3॥ ॥24॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
From the holy site of Varanasi, may all be well. Carry this farewell message to the saints. From here I must proceed to my eternal home; Garuda accompanies me on the way. May your grace remain upon this humble one. Says Tuka, I am going to my true home.
