Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
 स्वामिसेवा गोड । माते बाळकाचें कोड ॥1॥
 जेंजें मागावें भातुकें । तेंतें पुरवी कौतुकें ॥ध्रु.॥
 खेळविलें कोडें । हरुषें बोले कीं बोबडें ॥2॥
 तुका ह्मणे लाड । तेथें पुरे माझें कोड ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The service of the Lord is sweet. A mother delights in her child's play. Whatever toy the child asks for, she provides it with delight. She plays with the child joyfully, smiling when it babbles. Says Tuka, there my every desire is fulfilled in that tender love.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
