Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
जाय फाकोनियां निवडितां गाइऩ । आपलाल्या सोयी घराचिये ॥1॥
घराचिये सोयी अंतरला देव । गोपाळांचे जीव गोविंदापे॥2॥
गोविंदे वेधिलें तुका ह्मणे मन । वियोगें ही ध्यान संयोगाचें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
As the cows are sorted and separated, each heading toward its own home, God too fades from sight, each cowherd going his own way. The cowherds' souls remain with Govinda. Says Tuka, Govinda has captured their minds. Even in separation, they meditate on reunion.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
