Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
आळी करावी ते कळतें बाळका । बुझवावें हें कां नेणां तुह्मी ॥1॥
निवाड तो तेथें असे पायांपाशीं । तुह्मांआह्मांविशीं एकेठायीं ॥ध्रु.॥
आणीक तों आह्मी न देखोंसें जालें । जाणावें शिणलें भागलेंसें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे तुह्मां लागतें सांगावें । अंतरींचें ठावें काय नाहीं ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
A child's fussing is understood by the parent; why do You not know how to console me? The settlement of our matter lies there at Your feet, where You and I come together in one place. I can see nothing else anymore; know that I am exhausted and spent. Says Tuka, must I keep telling You? Do You not already know what lies within my heart?

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