Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
घातला दुकान । पढीये तैसा आहे वान ॥1॥
आह्मी भांडारी देवाचे । द्यावें घ्यावें माप वाचे ॥ध्रु.॥
उगवूं जाणों मोडी । जाली नव्हे त्याची जोडी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे पुडी । मोल तैसी खरी कुडी ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I have set up shop, and the stock is exactly as advertised. I am the treasurer of God, and my voice is the measure by which I give and receive. I know how to settle every account; what is gained or lost is never confused. Says Tuka, each parcel is weighed and priced, genuine or false, exactly as it is.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
