Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
मुखें बोलावें तें जीविंचें जाणसी । विदित पायांपाशीं सर्व आहे ॥1॥
आतां हें चि भलें भाकावी करुणा । विनियोग तो जाणां तुह्मी त्याचा ॥ध्रु.॥
आपलें तों येथें केलें नव्हे कांहीं । साधनाचा वांहीं पडों नये ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे देह दिला पिंडदान । वेळोवेळां कोण चिंता करी ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
What the mouth speaks, You already know as the truth of my soul; everything is known at Your feet. So it is good simply to cry out for mercy; You know best how to use it. Nothing here has been accomplished by my own effort; I must not fall off the path of devotion. Says Tuka, I have offered this body as a funeral oblation; once given, why carry any further worry?
