Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
मायबापाचिये भेटी । अवघ्या तुटी संकोचा ॥1॥
भोगिलें तें आहे सुख । खातां मुख मोकळें ॥ध्रु.॥
उत्तम तें बाळासाटीं । लावी ओठीं माउली ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे जाली धणी । आनंद मनीं न समाये ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
In the meeting with one's divine parents, all inhibition falls away. The joy that has been tasted is real and present; the mouth is free as it eats. The mother offers the best to her child, placing it upon his lips. Says Tuka, full satisfaction has been reached, and the bliss within the heart overflows.
