Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
क्षेम देयाला हो । स्फुरताती दंड बाहो ॥1॥
आतां झडझडां चालें । देइप उचलूं पाउलें ॥ध्रु.॥
सांडीं हंसगती । बहु उत्कंठा हे चित्तीं ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे आइऩ । श्रीरंगे विठाबाइऩ ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
My arms tremble with eagerness to embrace you. Come quickly now, lift your feet and hasten your steps. Abandon that graceful swan-gait, for the longing in my chitta is too great. Says Tuka, O Shrirang, O dear Vithabai, come to me.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
विरह
Longing and Separation
Cries from the dark night of the soul: remonstrances, complaints, and desperate yearning.
