Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
तूं माझा मायबाप सकळ वित्त गोत । तूं चि माझें हित करिता देवा ॥1॥
तूं चि माझा देव तूं चि माझा जीव । तूं चि माझा भाव पांडुरंगा ॥ध्रु.॥
तूं चि माझा आचार तूंचि माझा विचार। तूं चि सर्व भार चालविसी ॥2॥
सर्व भावें मज तूं होसी प्रमाण । ऐसी तुझी आण वाहातुसें ॥3॥
तुका ह्मणे तुज विकला जीवभाव। कळे तो उपाव करीं आतां ॥4॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
You are my mother and father, my entire wealth and kin. You alone are the one who ensures my welfare, O God. You are my God, You are my life, You are my very devotion, O Panduranga. You are my conduct, You are my reflection, You carry my every burden. In every way, You are my sole authority. I swear by You that this is so. Says Tuka, I have sold You my life and jiva. Now do whatever You deem fit.
