Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
कारणापें असतां दृष्टी । शंका पोटीं उपजेना ॥1॥
शूर मिरवे रणांगणीं । मरणीं च संतोष ॥ध्रु.॥
पाहिजे तो कळवळा। मग बळा काय उणे ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे उदारपणें । काय उणें मनाचें॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
When the goal is before one's eyes, no doubt arises in the chitta. A warrior shines on the battlefield and finds contentment even in death. What is needed is true earnestness of chitta, and then nothing is lacking in strength. Says Tuka, with a generous spirit, the mind lacks nothing.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
