Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The dawn of good fortune is this: the attainment of the saints' feet. From here may my head never rise until death itself comes. Be strong and bold, O my mind. Says Tuka, through prostrations and devotion, the hunger of my soul has been satisfied.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
संत
The Saints
The character and service of true saints: softer than butter, harder than diamond.
