राम
गाथा 1797The Power of the Name

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha

मराठी मूळ

आह्मां सर्वभावें हें चि काम । न विसंभावें तुझें नाम॥1॥

न लगे करावी हे चिंता । तरणें करणें काय आतां॥ध्रु.॥

आसनीं भोजनीं शयनीं । दुजें नाहीं ध्यानीं मनीं ॥2॥

तुका ह्मणे कृपानिधी । माझी तोडिली उपाधी ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

With all my being, this alone is my work: never to lose hold of Your name. There is no need for any other worry now about crossing over or achieving anything. In sitting, in eating, in sleeping, nothing else occupies my thought and my mind. Says Tuka, O treasury of mercy, You have severed all my entanglements.
