Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
कृपेचा ओलावा । दिसे वेगळा चि देवा ॥1॥
मी हें इच्छीतसें साचें । न लगे फुकटशाइऩ काचें ॥ध्रु.॥
जेणें जाय कळसा। पाया उत्तम तो तैसा ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे घरीं । तुझ्या अवघिया परी ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The moisture of your grace, O God, is visibly something apart. What I desire is the genuine thing; I have no use for a worthless imitation made of glass. The foundation must be sound if the pinnacle is to hold. Says Tuka, I want everything in your household to be real and whole.
