Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
दाखवूनि आस । केला बहुतांचा नास ॥1॥
थोंटा झोडा शिरोमणी । भेटलासी नागवणी ॥ध्रु.॥
सुखाचें उत्तर । नाहीं मुदलासी थार ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे काय । तुझे घ्यावें उरे हाय ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
By dangling hope You have ruined many. A stumbling, bumbling impostor, that is what You are: You came only to strip us bare. There is no comfortable answer; the very principal has no footing. Says Tuka, what should one take from You when only a sigh remains?
