Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
जिंकावा संसार । येणें नांवें तरी शूर ॥1॥
येरें काय तीं बापुडीं । कीर अहंकाराचीं घोडीं ॥ध्रु.॥
पण ऐशा नांवें । देवा धरिजेतो भावें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे ज्यावें । सत्य कीर्तीनें बरवें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
He alone is truly a warrior who conquers the worldly life. All others are mere wretches, horses ridden by ego. By this very determination one can hold God through devotion. Says Tuka, one should live nobly, adorned by the beauty of truthful fame.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
संसार
Worldly Life
The perplexities of action, karma, and navigating life in the world.
