Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
जिव्हे जाला चळ । नेये अवसान ते पळ ॥1॥
हें चि वोसनावोनी उठी । देव सांटविला पोटीं ॥ध्रु.॥
नाहीं ओढा वारा। पडिला प्रसंग तो बरा ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे जाली । मज हे अनावर बोली ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
My tongue has become restless; not a moment passes without utterance. I rise calling out to God and store Him within my chitta. There is no pull of wind or current; whatever occasion arises is good. Says Tuka, this speech of mine has become utterly uncontrollable.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
नाम महिमा
The Power of the Name
The supremacy of nama-smarana: God's name as the highest practice.
