Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
ह्मणऊनि काकुळती । येतों पुढतों पुढती । तुह्मां असे हातीं । कमळापती भांडार ॥1॥
फेडूं आलेती दरिद्र । तरी न लगे उशीर । पुरे अभयंकर । ठाया ठाव रंकाशी ॥ध्रु.॥
कोठें न घली धांव । याजसाठीं तजिली हांव । घेऊं नेदी वाव । मना केला विरोध ॥2॥
कारणांच्या गुणें । वेळ काळ तोही नेणें । तुमच्या कीर्तनें । तुका तुह्मां जागवी ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Therefore I come again and again with folded hands. The treasury is in Your keeping, O Lord of Lakshmi. We have come to end our poverty; then let there be no delay. Grant us a place of fearlessness. We run nowhere else; for this reason, we have abandoned all craving. We do not allow the mind any room for resistance. Says Tuka, by Your own kirtan, I keep calling You awake at every hour and season.
