Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
माझी आतां लोक सुखें निंदा करू । ह्मणती विचारू सांडियेला ॥1॥
कारण होय तो करावा विचार । काय भीड भार करूं देवा ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे काय करूं लापनिक । जनाचार सुख नासिवंत ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Let the world now freely mock me, saying I have abandoned all reason. When the true purpose is served, what need is there for social propriety, O Lord? Says Tuka, why should I hide? The happiness of worldly custom is perishable.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
