Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
मुख डोळां पाहे । तैशी च ते उभी राहे ॥1॥
केल्याविण नव्हे हातीं । धरोनि आरती परती ॥ध्रु.॥
न धरिती मनीं। कांहीं संकोच दाटणी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणें देवें । ओस केल्या देहभावें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Each woman gazes upon His face and remains standing just as she is. Nothing can be gained without holding out the lamp of worship and then stepping back. They harbor no hesitation or restraint in their minds. Says Tuka, the Lord has emptied them entirely of body-consciousness.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
