Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
बोलिलों तें आतां पाळावें वचन । ऐसें पुण्य कोण माझे गांठी ॥1॥
जातों आतां आYाा घेऊनियां स्वामी । काळक्षेप आह्मी करूं कोठें ॥ध्रु.॥
न घडे यावरि न धरवे धीर । पीडतां राष्टध देखोनि जग ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे तुह्मी दिसे मोकलिलें । काय आतां आलें जीवित्वाचें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The words I have spoken must now be honored. What merit in my store could equal such grace? I take your leave now, O Lord; where else shall we spend our remaining time? I can endure no further, nor hold my patience, seeing the world oppressed by falsehood. Says Tuka, you have set me free; what value remains now in this life?
