Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
तिन्ही लोक ॠणें बांधिले जयानें । सर्वसििद्ध केणें तये घरीं ॥1॥
पंढरीचोहोटां घातला दुकान । मांडियेले वान आवडीचे ॥ध्रु.॥
आषाढी कातिऩकी भरियेले हाट । इनाम हे पेंठ घेतां देतां ॥2॥
मुिH कोणी तेथें हातीं नेघे फुका । लुटितील सुखा प्रेमाचिया ॥3॥
तुका ह्मणे संतसज्जन भाग्याचें । अनंतां जन्मींचे सांटेकरी ॥4॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The One who has bound all three worlds in His debt, in whose household every fulfillment resides, has opened a shop at the crossroads of Pandhari, displaying wares of every desire. At the great fairs of Ashadhi and Kartiki, the marketplace overflows; it is a free bazaar of giving and receiving. No one there picks up liberation even for free; instead, they plunder the joy of divine love. Says Tuka, the saints and the virtuous are fortune's own; they have been gathering this treasure across countless births.
