Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
कृपाळु भक्तांचा । ऐसा पति गोपिकांचा ॥१॥
उभा न पाचारितां दारीं । न संगतां काम करी ॥ध्रु.॥
भाव देखोनि निर्मळ । रजां वोडवी कपाळ ॥२॥
तुकयाबंधु म्हणे न भजा । कां रे ऐसा भोळा राजा ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
So gracious is this Lord to the devoted, the very husband of the milkmaids. He stands at the door without being called and does your work without being told. Seeing a pure heart, he bows his own forehead to the dust of its feet. Says Tuka's brother, why will you not worship such a guileless King?.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
