Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
॥
मराठी मूळ
कां जी माझे जीवीं । आळस ठेविला गोसावीं ॥1॥
येवढा घात आणीक काय । चिंतनासी अंतराय ॥ध्रु.॥
देहआत्म वंदी । केला घात कुबुद्धी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे मन । कळवळी वाटे सीण ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Why, O Lord, have You placed laziness in my soul? What greater harm could there be? It obstructs my contemplation of You. The body-worshipping intellect has wrought this ruin. Says Tuka, the mind trembles and feels great pain.
