Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
आडकलें देवद्वार । व्यर्थ काय करकर ॥१॥
आतां चला जाऊं घरा । नका करूं उजगरा ॥ध्रु.॥
देवा लागलीसे निज । येथें उभ्या काय काज ॥२॥
राग येतो देवा । तुका म्हणे नेघे सेवा ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The temple door is shut; why make a fuss over nothing? Come, let us go home now and not keep this pointless vigil. God has fallen asleep; what business do we have standing here? Says Tuka, God is annoyed and will not accept our service.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.

Longing and Separation
Cries from the dark night of the soul: remonstrances, complaints, and desperate yearning.
