मराठी मूळ
कां रे पुंडएा मातलासी । उभें केलें विठ्ठलासि ॥1॥
विस्त क्षीरसागरवासीं । आला उभा पंढरीसि ॥ध्रु.॥
भHी देखोनि निकट । देवें सोडिलें वैकुंठ ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे बळी । तूं चि एक भूमंडळीं ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
O Pundalik, why did you become so bold as to make Vitthal stand? He who resided in the ocean of milk has come to stand in Pandhari. Seeing such intimate devotion, God left Vaikuntha behind. Says Tuka, you alone are the mightiest one on this earth.
