Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
लटिका चि केला । सोंग पसारा दाविला ॥1॥
अवघा बुडालासी ॠणें । बहुतांचे देणें घेणें ॥ध्रु.॥
लावियेलीं चाळा। बहू दावूनि पुतळा ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे हात । आह्मी अवरिली मात ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
It was all a pretense; the whole display was just a show. You are drowned in debts, with borrowings and lendings on every side. You dangled temptations and showed off Your image to lure people in. Says Tuka, we have caught on; we have put a stop to this game.
