Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
आतां बरें जालें । माझें मज कळो आलें ॥1॥
खोटा ऐसा संवसार । मज पायीं द्यावी थार ॥ध्रु.॥
उघडले डोळे । भोग देताकाळीं कळे ॥
तुका ह्मणे जीवा । होतां तडातोडी देवा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Now, at last, a good thing has happened: I have come to understand myself. This worldly life is false; grant me a place at Your feet. My eyes have opened, and I see the truth just as the moment of reckoning arrives. Says Tuka, O God, the jiva is being wrenched apart from the body.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
