Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
शुद्धबीजा पोटीं । फळें रसाळ गोमटीं ॥१॥
मुखीं अमृताची वाणी । देह वेचावा कारणीं ॥ध्रु.॥
सर्वांगीं निर्मळ । चित्त जैसें गंगाजळ ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे जाती । ताप दर्शनें विश्रांती ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
From a pure seed come fruits that are lush and beautiful. On the lips, nectar-words; the body should be spent for the cause. Pure in every limb, the chitta like Ganga-water. Says Tuka, the burning departs; by their very sight, repose.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
