Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
निरांजनीं एकटवाणें । संग नेणें दुसरा ॥1॥
पाहा चाळविलें कैसें । लावुनि पिसें गोवळें ॥ध्रु.॥
लपलें अंगें अंग । दिला संग होता तो ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे नव्हतें ठावें । जालें भावें वाटोळें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
In the formless solitude, He was utterly alone, knowing no second companion. See how He beguiled Himself, creating the illusion of the cowherd world. He hid within forms, disguising Himself as His own company. Says Tuka, it was not known before; through devotion the whole circle came into being.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
