Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
नाहीं वागवीत जाणिवेचें ओझें । स्वामिसेवेकाजे निर्धारु हा ॥1॥
आYाा ते प्रमाण हा मनीं निर्धार । येणें फिटे भार निश्चयेसी ॥ध्रु.॥
आळीकरें आह्मी एकविध चित्तें । तैसें होऊं येतें मायबापें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे माझी ये जातीची सेवा । घातलासे देवावरी भार ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I do not carry the burden of self-importance; my resolve is for the Master's service alone. Whatever the Master commands is my law; this is the firm conviction in my chitta, and by it every burden is lifted. With childlike insistence I pray with a single-pointed mind, and my divine parents respond in kind. Says Tuka, this is the nature of my service: I have placed the entire weight upon God.
