Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
एकांतांचे सुख देइप मज देवा । आघात या जीवा चुकवूनि ॥1॥
ध्यानीं रूप वाचे नाम निरंतर । आपुला विसर पडों नेदीं ॥ध्रु.॥
मायबाळा भेटी सुखाची आवडी । तैशी मज गोडी देइप देवा ॥2॥
कीर्ती ऐकोनियां जालों शरणांगत । दासाचें तूं हित करितोसी ॥3॥
तुका ह्मणे मी तों दीन पापराशी । घालावें पाठीशी मायबापा ॥4॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
O God, grant me the joy of solitude and spare this soul from calamity. Let Your form dwell in my meditation and Your name flow ceaselessly on my tongue; do not let me forget You. As a mother delights in meeting her child, grant me that same sweetness, O Lord. Hearing of Your glory I have come to surrender, for You always care for the welfare of Your servants. Says Tuka, I am lowly and a heap of sin; shelter me, O Mother and Father.
