Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
बहु धीर केला । जाण न होसी विठ्ठला ॥1॥
आतां धरीन पदरीं । करीन तुज मज सरी ॥ध्रु.॥
जालों जीवासी उदार । उभा राहिलों समोर ॥2॥
तुका विनवी संतां । ऐसें सांगा पंढरिनाथा॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I have waited with great patience, but You do not respond, O Vitthal. Now I shall seize hold of Your garment and make You equal to me. I have become generous with my very life and stand here before You. Says Tuka, appealing to the saints: please convey this to the Lord of Pandhari.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.

Longing and Separation
Cries from the dark night of the soul: remonstrances, complaints, and desperate yearning.
