Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
बाइऩल मेली मुक्ती जाली । देवें माया सोडविली ॥1॥
विठो तुझें माझें राज्य । नाहीं दुसयाचें काज ॥ध्रु.॥
पोर मेलें बरें जालें । देवें मायाविरहित केलें ॥2॥
माता मेली मज देखतां । तुका ह्मणे हरली चिंता ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
My wife has died and liberation has come; God has released Maya. O Vitthal, now Yours and mine is one kingdom; there is no need for anyone else. My child has died, and that is well; God has made me free of attachment. My mother died before my eyes. Says Tuka, with that, all anxiety was removed.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
Renunciation
The case for letting go of worldly attachments and turning wholly to God.
