Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
प्रीतिचिया बोला नाहीं पेसपाड । भलतसें गोड करूनि घेइऩ ॥1॥
तैसें विठ्ठलराया तुज मज आहे । आवडीनें गायें नाम तुझें ॥ध्रु.॥
वेडे वांकडे बाळकाचे बोल । करिती नवल मायबाप ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे तुज येवो माझी दया । जीवींच्या सखया जिवलगा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Between those who love one another, there is no awkwardness of speech; whatever is said, love makes it sweet. So it is between You and me, O Vitthal; with love I sing Your Name. A child's crooked, lisping words are a wonder and delight to its parents. Says Tuka, may You feel tender compassion for me, O companion of my jiva, my dearest one.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
