Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
नाहीं तुह्मी केला । अंगीकार तो विठ्ठला ॥1॥
सोंगें न पवीजे थडी । माजी फुटकी सांगडी ॥ध्रु.॥
प्रेम नाही अंगीं । भले ह्मणविलें जगीं ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे देवा । मज वांयां कां चाळवा॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
You have not truly accepted me, O Vitthal. One cannot reach the shore on a broken raft of pretense. There is no real love in me, yet I am called good in the world. Says Tuka, O God, why do You raise my hopes in vain?.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
