Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
नाहीं मागितला । तुह्मां मान म्यां विठ्ठला ॥1॥
जे हे करविली फजिती । माझी एवढी जना हातीं ॥ध्रु.॥
नाहीं केला पोट । पुढें घालूनि बोभाट ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे धरूनि हात । नाहीं नेले दिवानांत ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I never asked for any honor from You, O Vitthal. Yet what humiliation You have brought upon me, placing me in the hands of the world. I never made a spectacle by crying in public. I never dragged You by the hand into any court. Says Tuka, I kept my dignity.

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