Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
सांगतों तें तुम्हीं अइकावें कानीं । आमुचे नाचणीं नाचूं नका ॥१॥
जोंवरी या तुम्हां मागिलांची आस । तोंवरी उदास होऊं नका ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे काय वांयांविण धिंद । पति ना गोविंद दोन्ही नाहीं ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Listen to what I say with your own ears: do not dance to the tune I dance to. As long as you still cling to past attachments, do not try to become renunciants. Says Tuka, why this pointless commotion? You end up with neither husband nor Govinda.
