Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
नाहीं माथां भार । तुह्मी घेत हा विचार ॥1॥
जाणोनियां ऐसें केलें । दुरिल अंगेसी लाविलें ॥ध्रु.॥
आतां बोलावें आवडी । नाम घ्यावें घडी घडी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे दुरी । देवा खोटी ऐसी उरी ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
You do not take the burden upon Yourself; this is Your deliberate plan. Knowing this, You have placed the difficulty upon my shoulders. Now let me speak with love and take Your name again and again. Says Tuka, O God, this sort of remaining distant is unfair.

Longing and Separation
Cries from the dark night of the soul: remonstrances, complaints, and desperate yearning.
