Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
॥
मराठी मूळ
आतां नेम जाला । या च कळसीं विठ्ठला ॥1॥
हातीं न धरीं लेखणी । काय भुसकट ते वाणी ॥ध्रु.॥
जाणें तेणें काळ । उरला सारीन सकळ ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे घाटी । चाटू कोरडा शेवटीं ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Now the vow is made, O Vitthal, and this is its culmination. I will not take up the pen again; what use is this chaff of speech? However the remaining time goes, I shall pass it all in that manner. Says Tuka, at the very end, one is left licking a dry ladle.
