Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
सरलियाचा सोस मनीं । लाजोनियां राहिलों ॥1॥
आवडीनें बोलावितों । येथें तें तों लपावें ॥ध्रु.॥
माझें तें चि मज द्यावें । होतें भावें जोडिलें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे विश्वंभरा । आळीकरा बुझावा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The longing for what has been lost remains in my mind, and I stay quiet out of shame. I call to You with love, yet You hide away. Give me back what is mine, what I had gathered through devotion. Says Tuka, O sustainer of the universe, comfort and console me.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
विरह
Longing and Separation
Cries from the dark night of the soul: remonstrances, complaints, and desperate yearning.
