Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
पात्र शुद्ध चित्त गोही । न लगे कांहीं सांगणें ॥1॥
शूर तरी सत्य चि व्हावें । साटी जीवें करूनि ॥ध्रु.॥
अमुप च सुखमान । स्वामी जन मानावें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे जैसी वाणी । तैसे मनीं परिपाक ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
When the chitta is pure and true, no further instruction is needed. If you would be a real warrior, stake your very life on truth. The immeasurable honor is this: consider the Master as your own people. Says Tuka, let the words on the tongue match the ripeness within the chitta.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
