Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
जाऊं देवाचिया गांवां । देव देइऩल विसांवा ॥1॥
देवा सांगों सुखदुःख । देव निवारील भूक ॥ध्रु.॥
घालूं देवासी च भार। देव सुखाचा सागर ॥2॥
राहों जवळी देवापाशीं । आतां जडोनि पायांसी ॥3॥
तुका ह्मणे आह्मी बाळें । या देवाचीं लडिवाळें॥4॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Let us go to God's village; God will give us rest. Let us tell God our joys and sorrows; God will satisfy our hunger. Let us place our burden upon God; God is an ocean of bliss. Let us stay close to God, clinging firmly to His feet. Says Tuka, we are children, the darlings of this God.
