गाथा 2145Confession and Sin

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram

मराठी मूळ

भला ह्मणे जन । परि नाहीं समाधान ॥1॥

माझें तळमळी चित्त । अंतरलें दिसे हित ॥ध्रु.॥

कृपेचा आधार । नाहीं दंभ जाला भार ॥2॥

तुका ह्मणे कृपे । अंतराय कोण्या पापें ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

People call me good, but I have no inner peace. My chitta churns with unrest; true welfare seems to have slipped away. There is no foundation of grace; pretense has become a burden. Says Tuka, what sin has caused this obstacle to Your compassion?.

We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.

पाप बोध

Confession and Sin

Raw, unflinching accounts of personal failure, weakness, and the weight of sin.
