That We Should Make the Most of It

मराठी मूळ · गाथा 685

पोटीं जन्मती रोग । तरि कां ह्मणावे आप्तवर्ग ॥1॥

रानीं वसती औषधी । तरि कां ह्मणाव्या निपराधी ॥2॥

तैसें शरीराचें नातें । तुका ह्मणे सर्व आप्तें ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation · I.P. 827

DISEASES are born in the body, yet how could we call them our friends ? Simples grow in the forest, yet how could we call them strangers? Tuka says, Such i3 the body's relation to us, if we make it a friend, it is a friend.

Tr. J. Nelson Fraser & K.B. Marathe (1909)
