Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
मागेन तें एक तुज । देइप विचारोनि मज ॥1॥
नको दुर्जनांचा संग । क्षणक्षणा चित्तभंग ॥ध्रु.॥
जन्म घेइऩन मी नाना । बहु सोसीन यातना ॥2॥
रंक होइऩन दीनांचा । घायें देहपात साचा॥3॥
तुका ह्मणे हें चि आतां । देइप देइप तूं सर्वथा ॥4॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I ask You for only one thing; consider it and grant it to me. Never give me the company of the wicked, which shatters the mind moment by moment. I will take any number of births and endure great suffering. I will become the poorest of the poor, and bear wounds upon this body. Says Tuka, this one boon, give it to me now, give it without fail.
