Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
आजि शिवला मांग । माझें विटाळलें आंग ॥1॥
यासी घेऊं प्रायिश्चत्त । विठ्ठलविठ्ठल हृदयांत ॥ध्रु.॥
जाली क्रोधासी भेटी । तोंडावाटे नर्क लोटी ॥2॥
अनुतापीं न्हाऊं । तुका ह्मणे रवी पाहूं ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Today one I was taught to shun has touched me; my body has been defiled. For this I shall take atonement by chanting Vitthal, Vitthal from the heart. I met with anger today, and through my mouth it poured forth hellish filth. Says Tuka, let me bathe in remorse and then look upon the sun.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
Confession and Sin
Raw, unflinching accounts of personal failure, weakness, and the weight of sin.
