राम
गाथा 1860The Nature of God

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha

मराठी मूळ

देव निढळ देव निढळ । मूळ नाहीं डाळ परदेशी॥1॥

देव अकुळी देव अकुळी । भलते ठायीं सोयरीक ॥2॥

देव लिगाडएा देव लिगाडएा । तुका ह्मणे भाडएा दंभें ठकी ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

God is without family or lineage; He has no roots and is a stranger everywhere. God is without caste; He makes kinship in any place He pleases. Says Tuka, God is a vagabond who cheats even the proud through pretense.
