Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
काय देवें खातां घेतलें हातींचें । आलें हें तयाचें थोर भय ॥1॥
ह्मणतां गजरें राम एकसरें । जळती पापें थोरें भयधाकें॥ध्रु.॥
काय खोळंबले हात पाय अंग । नाशिलें हें सांग रूप काय ॥2॥
कोण लोकीं सांगा घातला बाहेरी । ह्मणतां हरि हरि तुका ह्मणे॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
What has God taken from your hands by eating? Why this great fear of Him? Saying Rama loudly and all at once, sins burn away in fright. Are your hands, feet, or limbs obstructed? Has your form been destroyed? Into what world have you been cast out? Says Tuka, what happens by saying Hari, Hari?
