Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
॥
मराठी मूळ
हितावरी यावें । कोणी बोलिलों या भावें ॥1॥
नव्हे विनोदउत्तर । केले रंजवाया चार ॥ध्रु.॥
केली अटाअटी । अक्षरांची देवासाटीं ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे खिजों । नका जागा येथें निजों ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Let someone come to benefit from these words; that is the spirit in which I have spoken. These are not casual remarks made merely to amuse. I have wrestled with words for God's sake alone. Says Tuka, do not be angry; here is a place to awaken, not to sleep.
