Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
 करावें कीर्तन । मुखीं गावे हरिचे गुण ॥1॥
 मग कांहीं नव्हे बाधा । काम दुर्जनाच्या क्रोधा ॥ध्रु.॥
 शांतिखड्ग हातीं। काळासी ते नागविती ॥2॥
 तुका ह्मणे दाता सखा । ऐसा अनंतासारिखा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Perform kirtan and sing the virtues of Hari. Then no harm can come from lust, the wicked, or anger. Those who hold the sword of peace in hand can outwit even Death. Says Tuka, there is no friend and benefactor like the Infinite One.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
नाम महिमा
