Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
पािळतों वचन । परि बहु भीतें मन ॥1॥
करितें पायांशीं सलगी । नये बैसों अंगसंगीं ॥ध्रु.॥
जोडोनियां कर । उभें असावें समोर ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे संत । तुह्मी मी बहु पतित ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I uphold the promise, yet my chitta trembles greatly. I may approach Your feet with familiarity, but I cannot presume to sit beside You. With joined hands, I should stand before You at attention. Says Tuka, you saints are exalted, while I am deeply fallen.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
