Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
करविली तैसी केली कटकट । वांकडें कीं नीट देव जाणे ॥1॥
कोणाकारणें हें जालेंसे निर्माण । देवाचें कारण देव जाणे ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे मी या अभिमाना वेगळा । घालुनि गोपाळा भार असें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Whatever commotion has been caused, it was caused by His will. Whether it was crooked or straight, God alone knows. For whose sake has all this creation been brought forth? God's purpose is known only to God. Says Tuka, I am separate from this ego. I have placed the entire burden upon Gopala and remain at rest.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
