Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
लौकिकापुरती नव्हे माझी सेवा । अनन्य केशवा दास तुझा ॥1॥
ह्मणऊनि करीं पायांसवें आळी । आणीक वेगळी नेणें परी ॥ध्रु.॥
एकविध आह्मी स्वामिसेवेसाटीं । वरी तो चि पोटीं एकभाव ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे करीं सांगितलें काम । तुह्मां धर्माधर्म ठावे देवा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
My service is not merely for show; I am Your exclusive and devoted servant, O Keshava. Therefore I make my plea at Your feet; I know no other way. I am single-minded in my devotion to the Master's service; the same oneness pervades my chitta and my outward actions. Says Tuka, I carry out the work You assign; matters of right and wrong are known to You alone, O God.
