Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
उदारा कृपाळा अंगा देवांच्या देवा । तुजसवें पण आतां आमुचा दावा ॥1॥
कैसा जासी सांग आतां मजपासुनी । केलें वाताहात दिले संसारा पाणी ॥ध्रु.॥
अवघीं आवरूनि तुझे लाविलीं पाठीं । आतां त्या विसर सोहंकोहंच्या गोष्टी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे आतां चरणीं घातली मिठी । पडिली ते पडो तुह्मा आह्मांसी तुटी ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
O generous and compassionate One, O God of gods, our contest is now with You. How will You escape from me now? You have overturned everything and drowned worldly life. I have gathered all my attachments and set them upon Your trail. Now forget those debates of 'I am He' and 'Who am I.' Says Tuka, I have seized Your feet in a firm embrace. Let whatever may happen come; even if it breaks the bond between us.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
