Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
माहेरींचें आलें तें मज माहेर । सुखाचें उत्तर करिन त्यासी ॥1॥
पायांवरी माथा आिंळगीन बाहीं । घेइऩन लवलाहीं पायवणी ॥ध्रु.॥
सुख समाचार पुसेन सकळ । कैसा पर्वकाळ आहे त्यास ॥2॥
आपुले जीवींचें सुखदुःख भावें । सांगेन अघवें आहे तैसें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Whatever has come from my true home, that itself is my home. I will return their happy message with joy. Placing my head on their feet, I will embrace them and wash their feet with devotion. I will inquire about all the news: how the festive times are passing there. I will share my own joys and sorrows with honest feeling, telling everything just as it is.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
